FREE: Red Sails Lettuce

The listing, Red Sails Lettuce has ended.

First introduced in 1985, Red Sails is known for its large open "head" of loose leaves up to a foot across that deepens in color as it matures. The bronze-red leaves hold their color and sweetness better than most varieties as the weather warms in the spring. It is fast growing, heat tolerant, and slow to bolt. Very high in nutritional value. Grows best in full sun, but will tolerate partial shade and even appreciates it in spring in hot climates. The red color is best in full sun and cool weather. For full-sized plants, space 18 inches apart.
