Can you get 'Fordhook Giant' in the US? This is the variety of
silver beet
(chard) I've grown for decades.
yes, at least i just saw it in the display the
other day and it was from Burpee so it should be
available a fair number of other places too.
does it get red stems?
No. White stems - prolly contibutes to why we call it 'silver' beet.
I thought 'silver' came from the way water beads on the leaves.
