Description
[50 days] A staple favourite in the British garden, Salad Bowl lettuce is an award-winning, non-heading variety with succulent, green leaves and a wonderful, mellow flavour. The colour is best in cooler weather, but the lettuce itself both heat-resistant and long-standing, and will stay mild and sweet even as the summer progresses. Its name comes from the fact that one plant will fill a salad bowl with no need for additional lettuce. The oak-like leaves are burgundy red and form a full rosette at maturity.
