Green Ice Loose Leaf Lettuce Seeds

Green Ice Loose Leaf Lettuce Seeds grow a crisp, extra-dark loose-leaf lettuce with deeply ruffled, glossy green leaves and better heat tolerance than most summer lettuces, making it slow to bolt. A reliable cut-and-come-again variety: harvest outer leaves regularly and the plant keeps producing a long, continuous supply of salad greens from a single sowing.
