Lettuce Heirloom Cutting Mix Seeds is a thoughtfully curated blend of beautiful, antique heirloom lettuces selected for both flavor and visual appeal. This mix includes the red-flecked, lime-green "Speckled Troutback," sweet and crisp "Blush Butter Cos," juicy "Red Ruffled Oak," notched dark red "Devil’s Tongue," and crunchy, upright "Sucrine." Together, they create a stunning tapestry in your garden while providing an abundance of tender, flavorful leaves for your salads. Comprising equal parts of these classic varieties, this mix allows for frequent harvests of vibrant, tasty leaves throughout the season. Sow seeds in early spring in finely worked soil with plenty of sun, and continue sowing small batches for a continuous harvest. You can also space seedlings 8 to 10 inches apart for full-sized heads. Lettuce thrives in mild weather with consistent moisture, and you can extend your growing season into hot weather by covering with shade cloth. Harvest by the "cut and come again" method, and enjoy these tender, flavorful leaves dressed simply with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for a fresh, satisfying salad.
