Miner’s Lettuce (Claytonia)

A succulent green with fresh spade-shaped leaves that tolerate cold. Slow to germinate; be patient! We grow miner’s lettuce through the winter outdoors and in cold frames and add to our winter salad mix. Seed March to September, in rows or blocks, around 1 seed/cm. Harvest with scissors, just above the crown of the plant, so that it can grow back. 40 days to maturity.

Latin: Claytonia perfoliata
