Swiss Chard Seeds – A Hardy and Delicious Heirloom

Swiss Chard Seeds produce one of the most popular heirloom Swiss chard varieties, known for its mild, sweet flavor and robust growth. A member of the Beta vulgaris family, Lucullus chard features tall, pale ivory stalks that resemble celery, with deeply savoyed, dark green leaves that add texture and beauty to any garden and dish.

Lucullus is an easy-to-grow vegetable that thrives in various climates, making it an excellent choice for home gardeners. Its ability to grow all summer without bolting ensures a continuous supply of fresh, leafy greens throughout the season. Whether you're planting a backyard garden, a raised bed, or a container garden, Lucullus Swiss chard is a resilient, high-yielding crop that provides fresh greens for months.

Why Choose this?

Swiss chard is often compared to perpetual spinach due to its long-lasting production and mild taste. However, Lucullus stands out because of its tender leaves, thick white stems, and exceptional heat tolerance. Here’s why this variety is a must-have in any home garden greens collection:

✅ Mild, sweet flavor – Great for fresh salads, sautéing, soups, and stir-fries.
✅ Bolting resistance – Grows all summer without going to seed.
✅ Nutrient-rich – Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like iron and magnesium.
✅ Easy to grow – Suitable for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
✅ High-yielding – Produces an abundance of green leafy vegetables throughout the season.
✅ Cold-hardy and heat-tolerant – Adapts to various growing conditions.
✅ Fast-growing – Harvest baby leaves in just 30 days or wait for mature growth in 50-60 days.

Lucullus Swiss chard is a perfect addition to gardening seeds collections for those who love organic Swiss chard and want a continuous supply of homegrown greens.

Growing Lucullus Swiss Chard from Seed

Growing is simple and rewarding. Whether you plant them in a backyard garden, raised bed, or container, these leafy green seeds will thrive with minimal maintenance.

Planting Instructions:

• Sowing Time: Direct sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, or in late summer for a fall harvest.
• Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with a pH of 6.0–7.5.
• Sunlight: Grows best in full sun but tolerates partial shade.
• Spacing: Sow seeds ½ inch deep, spacing them 6–12 inches apart. Rows should be at least 18 inches apart.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water regularly, especially during dry spells.
• Thinning: Once seedlings emerge, thin to 8–10 inches apart to allow ample growth.

With proper care, Lucullus chard will keep producing tender leaves and thick stems for months. Regular harvesting encourages more growth, ensuring a steady supply of fresh, nutritious greens.
