Probably the best loved mini cos lettuce, with gloriously sweet flavoured, dark green leaves and a crisp, solid heart.

Exclusively launched by T&M back in 1979 as the most crisp and sweet hearted Cos which stood in perfect quality without bolting through the summer. Upright habit with noticeable savoyed/bubbled dark green outer leaves. Good sweetness, use as a sugar Cos when young, or as a fully hearted mature lettuce. Also suited as a 'cut and come again' salading.

Medium to large hearted, bright green leaved, crisp 'iceberg' hearts which stand well without bolting during the hotter summer weather. Cut hearts store well in the refrigerator. Ideal for spring or summer sowing.

Delicious flavour loose leaf type, perfect for mixed salads. Pick individual leaves or whole 'non-hearting' heads. Cut a few leaves from each plant, perfect for baby leaf salads, they will grow back for up to four cuts. Cut the whole head of mature plants.

Versatile and colourful lettuce. Outer serrated leaves become red whilst inner heart is green. The red colouration will intensify with higher temperatures. Young leaves can be harvested as baby salad. Harvest whole heads early in the morning or late in the evening for the freshest flavour and crispness.

Large solid heads, crisp crunchy texture. Excellent flavour. Grows well in adverse weather conditions.

A lovely mixture of these two 'frilly' leaved lettuces. Pick individual leaves as required allowing plants to regrow or pick whole heads. Ideal for sowing throughout the summer as plants are slow to bolt.
