This butterhead type of lettuce is prized for its heavy, compact heads, super flavor, and heat resistance. The center leaves blanch to a light color with a buttery texture and rich flavor. Outer leaves are crisp and juicy. A good choice for production in early summer, ideal for containers.

Sowing: Direct seed as soon as soil can be worked in spring. Repeat at 2-week intervals until late spring. Sow again in late summer and fall.
Care: Water regularly and fertilize when 3"(7.5cm) tall. Provide light shade for summer sowing.
Harvest: Pick leaves anytime as needed, but before they yellow or reach the size of your hand or cut entire plant.
Your Health: Rich in fiber and potassium, with moderate amount of vitamin A.
