Bring a burst of color to your garden and your plate with Lollo Rosso! This striking Italian loose-leaf variety features extremely frilly, deeply curled edges that fade from bright green at the base to a stunning deep reddish-purple.
These pure, untreated seeds produce lettuce that is as delicious as it is beautiful. The ruffled texture catches and holds salad dressings perfectly, and the flavor is pleasantly mild with a very subtle, satisfying nutty undertone.
š PURE & UNTREATED
Sourced securely to ensure completely natural growing conditions; safely untreated for family gardening.
šØ STUNNING COLOR
The deep magenta-red edges make it one of the most visually appealing lettuces you can grow.

Direct sow seeds 1/8 inch deep as soon as the soil can be worked in spring.
2. Germination
Keep soil moist. Sprouts will appear in 7-14 days. The red color develops as they grow.
3. Thinning
Thin to 8 inches apart. The cooler the weather, the deeper the red color will be!
4. Care & Feeding
Water consistently at the base of the plant to avoid trapping moisture in the frilly leaves.
5. The Harvest
