Organic Batavia lettuce, Reine des Glaces, seedling
Lactuca sativa var. capitata
This traditional Batavian lettuce from Savoy is a true specialty. The ruffled and frayed dark-green leaves give variety on the plate, yet are also very crisp. It grows well in spring and autumn cultivation. It looks especially great at the market stand. It is suitable for mountain areas.
The seeds are coated with a thin layer of terracotta, making them larger and more visible. Sowing coated seeds is much easier, be it in the vegetable garden or in professional production.
Sales unit: 1 seedling
Sow from March to April in seedling trays. Transplant seedlings into the open field from April to May at a distance of 30 ✕ 30 cm. For autumn crops, sow in July. Lettuce responds well to mature compost and regular irrigation. Intercropping with other vegetables works exceptionally well.
