Description
Lactuca sativa var. capitata
Our most popular lettuce variety, for good reason!
Folks can’t get enough of this Cornell-bred variety from the 1960s that combines two of our favorite things—fresh garden-grown lettuce and the suggestion of butter—with tender, succulent leaves which form a tight rosette and resist bolting as temperatures warm. Nom nom!
Seeds grown by Sonshine Acres in Emmett, Idaho.
200 seeds.
Directions: Direct sow in spring before last week of frost, or start indoors in early spring and transplant outdoors after 4-6 weeks. Thin to 8-12" spacing for heads. Prefers full sun to part shade. For frequent harvesting all summer long, sow every two weeks.
