Unit price perBeta vulgaris
Golden Sunrise is an attractive silverbeet with glossy, medium-green leaves that are lightly crumpled and carried on brilliant golden-yellow stems. The colour is particularly vivid when plants are young, making it an excellent variety for colourful baby leaf mixes as well as full-sized harvests.
The tender young leaves have a mild flavour and can be eaten fresh, while mature leaves and golden stems are excellent steamed, sautéed or added to soups, pies and vegetable dishes. Regular harvesting of the outer leaves encourages continued production.
Silverbeet has been cultivated around the Mediterranean since ancient times and performs best in fertile, well-drained soil with a pH above 6.0. It prefers cooler growing conditions and consistent moisture.
Seed count: approximately 50–60 seeds per gram.
Approximately 120 seeds per packet.
