Description
Lactuca sativa
A crisp, ravishing mini-romaine with a lengthy harvest window.
This compact romaine forms small, dense heads with layers upon layers of speckled leaves that make easy work of an intriguing salad—no leaf tearing required if you harvest them small! They can stand alone or be paired with other varieties in a mix for more diversity in color & texture. You can begin harvesting at just 30 days for mini heads!
