-
Leaves hold their shape when heated
-
Ideal for serving with hot food
-
Crunchy raw leaves, excellent flavour
A cross between Iceberg and a Cos lettuce, it has boat-shaped leaves and the taste of iceberg with a hint of Christmas green peas. Its crunchy texture is suited to salads. This lettuce holds its shape when heated making it possible to serve the cupped leaves filled with hot foods. They are also a good wrapping leaf.
Perfect for piling up with freshly dug new potatoes, French beans and cherry tomatoes as a warm salad as the leaves don't wilt when they are heated. Even do away with the plate altogether to save on washing up!
Sowing Information
Sow thinly into finely raked, warm, moist soil at a depth of 13mm (½") in blocks or rows, sprinkling a few seeds every 30cm (12"). (Germination 6-12 days) Remove surplus seedlings to leave the strongest at each station. Use the 'thinning' as baby leaves. Lettuce grows best in well cultivated soil in a sunny position. Water freely during dry weather. Early sowings may be started under cover and planted out. Sowing to Cropping: 10-14 weeks.
