Organic Lettuce Seedling

Red Lettuce is a stunning addition to the garden, prized for its deep burgundy leaves and tender texture. Not only does it look beautiful in your garden beds, but those dark pigments also mean it’s packed with extra antioxidants compared to green varieties.

Why Grow Red Lettuce?

• Visual Appeal: Perfect for creating a colorful, gourmet salad mix right in your backyard.
• Heat Tolerant: Many red varieties are slightly more resistant to "bolting" (going to seed) than standard green lettuces.
• Continuous Harvest: Harvest the outer leaves individually and the plant will keep producing fresh growth from the center.

Planting Tip: Red lettuce keeps its deep color best when it receives plenty of sunlight, but it will appreciate some afternoon shade in the peak Gambian heat. Keep the soil consistently moist to ensure the leaves stay sweet and crunchy.
