Description

Spinach / Swiss Chard ‘Bright Lights’ is a stunning, highly productive heirloom favorite that brings a burst of electric color to the garden. It features heavily crinkled, deep green leaves supported by intensely vibrant stems in shades of neon pink, brilliant gold, deep crimson, orange, and white. This exceptionally hardy variety is highly heat-tolerant, making it an excellent alternative to traditional spinach during warmer months as it resists bolting and produces continuously from spring right through the winter frosts.

Culinary Uses

Young Leaves: Incredibly tender with a mild, sweet flavor, making them perfect for raw summer salads.
Mature Greens: Can be steamed, sautéed with garlic and olive oil, or tossed into stews and soups exactly like traditional spinach.
Stalks: Highly nutritious and beautifully crunchy; chop and cook them similarly to celery or asparagus to preserve their bright colors.
