This unique form of lettuce produces cylindrical, upright heads. The long, cupped leaves are medium green, thick and crisp, and have a sweet, mild flavour. This variety is highly prized and considered a gourmet delight. For best flavour and development, time crops to mature during cool weather. Provide light shade for summer sowing. Can sow again in later summer for a fall crop.

Direct-sow seeds where plants are to mature several seeks before the last expected frost date since lettuce likes cool conditions. Alternatively, start seed indoors four weeks before outdoor planting to obtain transplants for an extra early harvest. Choose a sunny site with good drainage.
