About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
The light green sister of ‚Lollo Rossa’ with the same lavishly frilled leaves, only in a bright fresh green. As a cut-and-come-again lettuce you harvest the outer leaves continuously while the heart keeps growing on. Planted in the bed next to the red form it makes a pretty two-coloured band.
Mild and crisp with a fresh, almost neutral flavour. The voluminous frill looks good in mixed salads.
