Marvel of Four Seasons--Four Seasons is an old French heirloom originally introduced commercially in 1885. It is a lettuce grown for both its exceptional beauty and versatility. The ample heads produce tight rosettes of thick crisp leaves that are deep green tipped with red. Four Seasons is absolutely one of the best eating varieties anywhere, and it is heat tolerant. Lettuce grows best when the temperatures are in the 60’s. Press seeds into soil, but do not cover, keep soil moist. Thin young seedlings to 12-18” apart. 45-55 days. Approx. 1,000 untreated seeds
Black Seeded Simpson-- An old favorite, both because of its flavor and because of its earliness. You'll be harvesting full sized leaves in a little over a month, and greens can be harvested in just three weeks. Withstands a lot of adverse conditions including some drought, frost, and heat. Slow to bolt. Sow outside in early Spring, 3 to 4 weeks before last frost, and successive plantings every 3 weeks. 40 days. ½ tsp., approx. 1,000 organic seeds
