Swiss Chard
Family
Amaranthaceae
Garden(s):
Beta vulgaris 'Bright Lights' [Leaf Beet Group] has petioles in various colors.
It has been our experience that Beta vulgaris 'Bright Lights' [Leaf Beet Group] performs well in our area and creates a lush display of foliage in cool season plantings. However, it has been observed to be favored by deer and has therefore become difficult to maintain in a garden display without the use of deer deterrents.
