Product Information

Forms a round mound of pale green, frilled edged leaves. Lattuga Lollo Bionda does not produce a firm heart. Cut the entire plant or just pick leaves as required. Makes an attractive complement to Lollo Rossa. Lettuce is very suitable for inter-cropping between taller, long-standing vegetables, such as beans, tomatoes, peppers, etc. Lettuces require rich, moisture retentive soil free of weeds .

Sow seeds in succession during February and March under protection, or March to August outdoors. Sow seeds thinly in rows, 13mm deep, allowing 30cm between rows. Thin to about 25cm between plants. Alternatively thin to about 10cm apart for 'salad leaves' and pick regularly. Can also be sown thickly under glass all year round for 'salad leaves' .

Keep well watered. During warmer months cutting can commence after about 70 days. The whole plant can be lifted complete with roots, soil washed from the roots, which will keep the leaves fresh for a longer time.
