This reliable oak leaved lettuce can be grown from early spring to late summer to provide a succession of crisp and tasty leaves. These lovely dark red leaves are good harvested as a cut and come again crop providing crops over a period of time.
Lettuce plants tend to bolt in midsummer if not kept well-watered so I tend to sow mine in spring and then later in the summer which avoids too much watering.
Approx. 150 seeds.
Botanical name: Lactuca sativa
- Grown by: Maggie Carr
Sow Feb-July in modules, or can be direct sown. Early sowings can be planted out in a greenhouse or tunnel but this variety does best outdoors throughout the growing season. For full-sized lettuces plant 30cm (12”) apart each way. Water regularly especially during dry spells.
