New and improved gold chard selected for bolt tolerance, uniform color, and wider petioles.

Days to maturity: 30 days baby; 60 bunching.

A showy display—deeply savoyed, dark green leaves with high lustre contrast beautifully with the rich, golden-orange petioles. Vigorous plants and full leaves make for excellent yields of top-quality product.

'Heart of Gold' was bred at Johnny's by Dr. John Navazio.
