Product description

• OUTSTANDING WINTER HARDINESS: Lettuce Winter Density as the name suggests is renown for its winter hardiness. It is a semi cos type that produces dark green heads and crispy leaves. It is similar to a Little Gem but produces a larger lettuce.
• SWEET FRESH FLAVOUR: The very best variety for growing during the coldest months of the year, as it's extremely hardy and resilient. It's flavour sweet and fresh making for the perfect winter treat.
• HOW TO PLANT: Earlier sowings can be made direct where they are to grow, in shallow drills: thin seedlings to 20cm apart and protect with a cloche once colder conditions start. Later sowings from autumn onwards do best in a coldframe or in the greenhouse borders: thin to 20cm apart once established.
• TOP GROWING TIPS: Protect from slugs. When thinning lettuce seedlings, lift the larger thinnings carefully and replant in a new row at their final spacings to double your crop. A good source of antioxidants such as beta-carotene, lutein and vitamin C as well as vitamin K.
• GO BACK TO YOUR ROOTS: Lettuce Winter Density is a great winter vegetable to grow. Planting veg, herbs and flowers is a wonderful way to spend time in your garden, cultivate mindfulness and appreciate the little things just like in years gone by. Working with the earth and growing things is immensely satisfying – teach your children or grandchildren this priceless skill of harvesting food in their own gardens, allotments, greenhouses, inside the home in pots or even in community gardens!
