Freckles Romaine Lettuce Seeds

Freckles Romaine Lettuce Heirloom Vegetable Seeds

This is such a pretty romaine lettuce. The leaves are bright green with copper/red spots. Makes for an interesting contrast in a mixed salad. This is a romaine type lettuce meaning the leaves are more stiff/crunchy than other lettuces, which is my preference. The head gets pretty big at about 6-8 inches wide. I like to harvest each individual leaf as needed so it will keep growing and producing more leaves. You can harvest the entire head if preferred. I add a big handful of blood meal in the planting hole and that is the only time I fertilize. Blood meal is high in nitrogen and helps any type of leafy greens to grow an abundance of leaves with saturated color.
