(Swiss Chard)
This pretty Swiss chard is named for the fact that it looks like rhubarb. It’s a vigorous cultivar and its vibrant red stems hold their color even after cooking. Harvest can begin 50 to 60 days after seeding. Leaves should be gathered by cutting the oldest outer stems close to the ground. These have a short shelf life, so eat them quickly.

(Chinese Red Birch)
A rather large deciduous tree that has a rounded to conical habit, the Chinese red birch is mainly grown for its ornamental bark.

The outer bark layer also is covered in a white powdery bloom, especially when young. This plant is native to central and western China.
In early spring tiny flowers appear in pendulous catkins that droop from the branches. The leaves emerge...

(River Birch)
River birch is a handsome, often multi-stemmed, fast growing tree that is native to the central and southeastern United States. Its most notable ornamental feature is its beautiful peeling bark that appears in mixed shades on white, rust-orange, gray and brown. Like other birches, it has elongated catkins, which appear in spring, and its medium-green leaves turn a dirty yellow in the fall. Its seeds ripen in late spring, much earlier than other birch species.
This tree is a wise selection for...
