Red Sails Lettuce
Red Sails Lettuce
Long-Lasting Bronze Leaves

  (2 customer reviews)



Red Sails Lettuce is a favorite for salads and garnishes. Deep bronze-red crinkly leaves have mild, bitter-free flavor. A pretty partner for green- leaf varieties. 40 DAYS.

Grows several types of lettuce fro a mix of colors and textures. Leaf lettuce has loose rosettes, produces over a longer season and is more heat tolerant. Head lettuce forms round heads and tends to be more crispy in texture.

Seed Counts: 1/2 oz. of lettuce seeds contains about 12,000 seeds and sows a 200-ft. row.

Very reliable variety of lettuce year after year. Both tasty & beautiful - nice to mix with Romaine for a colorful sald. I plant in partial shade in this climate and Red Sails produces well into the hot sunny summer days.
