Country

B.C KO T

Beautiful small butterhead lettuce with very unusual appearance unlike other butterhead lettuce varieties. Dense small globular heads with creamy-yellow center and bronze-to-light green, slightly savoyed leaves. A slow bolting variety that will do well in hot, humid climates. As this lettuce has very compact heads, it can be planted closer together and will perform very well in smaller containers. Excellent taste and nice crunchy texture. Dark seeds.
