LETTUCEBRED & GREEN SALAD BOWL

Botanical Name: Lactuca sativa

This mixture will brighten up all your Summer salads with both red and green leaves. A crisp, tender, ‘non-hearting’ variety. The leaves can be picked a few at a time whenever they are required. Crops throughout Summer even in hot, dry weather and hardly ever bolts. Lettuces prefer a sunny position and fairly rich soil. The combination of red and green plants make an attractive and useful edging to the vegetable plot or even the flower garden. The packets contain equal quantities of each colour.

How To Grow:
Sow at two weekly interval for a continuous supply. Sprinkle thinly, 1.5cm deep, in rows 20-25cm apart. Keep watered and weed free. Harvest: Pick the leaves when they are young for the best flavour.

When To Plant: All year round as required.
