Lettuce 'Summer Picnic Mix'
While I love ‘Alfresco Mix’ for its layers of flavor, I wanted to include an only lettuce mixture for all the purists out there. Enter ‘Summer Picnic Mix’. This leafy mix includes:
Lettuce ‘Annapolis’
Lettuce ‘Continuity’
Lettuce ‘Garrison’
Lettuce ‘Simpson Elite’
Lettuce ‘Super Jericho’
Height & Spread: ~12”
A Note from the Grower
Growing greens is absolutely rewarding! They create a picture perfect spring garden, and because of their short lives and shallow roots systems, they can grow in almost any vessel in which you plant them. Enjoy fresh lettuce, arugula, radicchio, kale or chard from the mixes I have offered this year.
It is key to get your greens planted while it is still cool to ensure longer harvest time. Last year, I planted in planters and in-ground, and I have to say, I enjoyed my planter experience best, harvest time lasted longer and I had more room in my raised bed garden for other plants. Head to the Plant Guide for greens planting, care and harvest info.
