Its striking green-to-ruby-red leaf transition and crisp, tender texture create an enticing rosette head perfect for culinary use. Renowned for its superior heat tolerance and versatility in yielding flavorful baby greens, this lettuce offers both historical significance and culinary flexibility. 1/2g ~ 500 seeds.

SEED FACTS

GROWING TIPS

Plant seeds directly into the garden starting 4 weeks before average last frost date or as soon as the soil can be worked. You can also start seeds indoors 2-4 weeks before transplanting. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 50-70 degrees. Lettuce seed does not germinate well if soil temperature is above 80 degrees. Resume planting in late summer for a fall harvest. Lettuce is cold tolerant and will tolerate light to moderate frosts. Succession plantings every at 2 weeks intervals will provide a steady supply.
