Chard and celeriac through the winter?

[Jono]

Picked some Swiss Chard yesterday from the garden. Forgot it was there, so a bonus for me!

This stuff is shooting new leaves too, and its in quite a shady spot.

My swiss chard was killed off by the hard snow period we had here in December. It all died down, and the roots etc rotted, so have had to pull it out. Will be trying again this year though - it went down well with us and the chucks.

Celariac seemed to get killed off too, as well as the dwarf kale I grew. Although the kale did start to do a bit of resprouting recently.

They need quite a long growing season, longer than indicated on the packet. I sow mine early and keep in greenhouse once established.
Everything gets started off on my windowsills.

Yes I know, they will be one years old in April!!
