Swiss chard 'Barese' is an early-maturing, compact variety with thick leaves, a buttery texture, and a sweet, nutty flavor. Delicious as both baby and mature greens, it is a top choice for flavor.
This heirloom variety originates from southeastern Italy, specifically the port city of Bari in the Puglia region, where locals know it as Cicla di Bari.
