Cut and Come Again Lettuce Blend

Product Description

One of the benefits of growing your own salad is having fresh salad greens.  Lettuce is so much better just picked, and this mix of leaf lettuces lends itself to beautiful and fun fresh salads.  Full of color, texture and shapes, this blend contains green and red, frilly and flat, crisp and tender, everything you could want.  Just go out, pick a few leaves of each kind, and leave the rest of the head to produce more leaves for later.  Or harvest the tops of the baby greens, leaving the base and roots in the ground.  The base will produce another crop of leaves for a future harvest.  

Minimum of 250 seeds per packet.

Maximum 4 packets per order.

Lettuce does not like heat and will get bitter and bolt (go to flower) if the temperatures are too warm. Cut off the flower stalks to extend the life of your lettuce. You can also bring indoors, if in a planter, and set in a sunny (preferably southern facing) window to extend the life of the plant.
