A top performer that’s sure to please! Winter Density Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is a popular English heirloom with large, 8- to 12-inch, dark green leaves that are nutritious, tender and tasty. Stands up well to warm temperatures and is quick to mature. Certified organic and ready for harvest in 55 days.
Each packet contains approximately 250 seeds.
Planting and Harvesting Tips:
Plants require partial shade in warm climates, rich, well-drained soil and regular water. Sow directly into prepared beds 2-4 weeks before the last expected frost. Try broadcasting over a wide row and gently rake or tamp to a depth of 1/8 inch deep — barely cover!
To harvest, pinch or cut leaves just above the soil surface and allow to grow back. Continue harvesting over several months, or until plants begin to lose flavor. Once plants bolt (flower), the harvestable leaves will become bitter.
