45 Day. Loose-Leaf. Popular American heirloom dating from the 1870's. Handsome, light-green, beautifully crumpled leaves are crisp, tender and sweet at all times. Stands up to heat and drought. Slow bolting, never bitter, early and adaptable. As soon as the soil can be worked, sow seed 1" apart, 1/8" deep, in rows 18" apart. Allow one week for germination. Thin to 6-12" apart. Lettuce does best in cool weather, and can be started inside 4-5 weeks before transplanting outdoors. Cannot ship to FL
