OUTSTANDING QUALITIES

Silverado is a later maturing swiss chard variety (when compared to Ford Hook Giant) with very good bolting resistance. Leaves have a dark green glossy colour and leaves are very savoy. Petioles are white and thinner than the normal Fordhook Giant. Silverado takes 60 65 days to mature after seedling transplant. Plants are very uniform.
SPECIAL VARIETAL REQUIREMENTS
