Flashy Trout Back Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is een malse, ouderwetse romaine sla met een gespikkelde rood-groene kleur die de plant een opvallend forelachtig uiterlijk geeft. Dit ras gedijt goed in koel weer en kan binnen of buiten worden geplant.
Elke aankoop van zaden ondersteunt regeneratieve landbouw en het herstel van natuurlijke gebieden.
The speckled red and green leaves are even prettier in person, and the romaine hearts have a lovely tender crunch. It handled the cool spring nights without bolting, which made all the difference for our salads.
Planted these in early spring when the soil was still chilly, and they sprouted fast as the description promised. The speckled trout-like pattern is even prettier in person, and the leaves stay tender for salads straight from the garden.
The speckled red and green leaves really do look like a trout’s back, which makes the garden bed feel a bit more alive than plain lettuce. They stayed tender even through a few cooler nights, and I’ve been snipping leaves for salads for weeks now.
