Lettuce
It's hard to imagine a
salad or a sandwich without lettuce. With so many diverse varieties to
choose from, there's a lettuce for every taste. Lettuce is also an
ingredient in many delicious vegetable recipes. Have you ever had your
loose leaf lettuce fresh from the garden with sugar and vinegar?
You're an old time Maine Yankee if you have!

Lettuce 'Buttercrunch'
Sorry, Sold Out for 2008
One of the classic
butterheads, Buttercrunch combines good garden performance with
tender-crisp flavor. The leaves are very dark green and thicker than most,
with a crisp texture and juicy bite. They are loosely-held on big heads
that grow more vigorously than many others, ready in just 65 days. So
high-performing and satisfying that it won an AAS award, Buttercrunch is
the highest-quality eating butterhead-type we know.

Lettuce 'Red
Sails'
Sorry, Sold Out for 2008
A favorite among
gardeners who prize beauty as well as flavor, Red Sails received an AAS
when it was introduced -- and has never looked back! Among the very first
to arise, it resists bolting, giving you an especially long season of
delectable eating. The large, erect leaves are deep red at the ruffled
tips, shading into a bronzy-maroon and finally becoming green toward the
base. A great source of rich color for the salad bowl, they are
high-quality eating, with a soft texture and buttery flavor that appeals
to all ages.
