Merlot Red Leaf Lettuce

Strikingly dark red/purple leaves, great for baby leaves or as glorious heads! More resistant to mildews than other lettuces.

Start in trays, seeding 5mm deep. Transplant 30-45cm apart for heads, closer for looseleaf, or direct-seed more densely in rows for baby greens. Sow April through Aug.; stagger plantings for a continuous supply of lettuce. 7-15 days to germination, 55 days to maturity.

Latin: Lactuca sativa
