This vigorous red heirloom variety has bright burgundy leaves with green centres that are great for baby leaf salad mixes. Red Salad Bowl lettuce seeds form big rosettes with the deeply indented leaves that we love in an oak-leaf lettuce; and is slow to bolt, tender, and mild-tasting. The bright red colour is best in cool temperatures. This popular lettuce grows well all year long, and right through winter if grown in a cold frame or polytunnel. Try some in patio containers for the convenience of picking individual leaves for salads and sandwiches.
Matures in 55 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
