Lettuce - Salad Bowl Mix

The Lettuce Leaf Salad Bowl Blend, 'Lactuca sativa', is one of the most heat tolerant and bolt resistant leaf lettuces available. Red Salad Bowl is absolutely beautiful. The delicate, burgundy red, deeply lobed leaves are accentuated when grown with the long, wavy leaves of green salad bowl. It looks even better when served on the table! Red Salad Bowl color is even more intense during cool weather. They do not get bitter as the temperature rises. Combine all our lettuces and greens for an incredible mesclun mix. Lettuce is a cool season annual. Successive plantings can produce lettuce spring through fall. Plant in early spring, 3 to 4 weeks before the average last frost date, and successive plantings thereafter every 3 weeks until 5 weeks before fall frost. Lettuce likes light, fertile, moist, and well drained soils. They will grow in light shade. Lettuce grows well near cabbage, beets, carrots, chives, garlic, and onion. ... additional information
