Lactuca sativa
We have another fancy salad contender, the red salanova type. Crunchy cruly leaves, slightly bitter taste, perfect for a healthy summer dinner. This beautiful lettuce has a very intense red coloring and a nice and compact growth. Not only does it taste great, in combination with its green brother it makes for an excellent picture in Herbert.
Time to first harvest in Herbert: 5-6 weeks
Traditional farming: 8-12 weeks
