Red Little Gem
SKU
281RV
Description
Not as popular as the green 'Little Gem' but slightly bigger. A compact upright variety with stunning red leaves and green base, a great addition to a salad.
Harvest
May to November
Growing Instructions
Plant 30cm apart in a sunny but sheltered position in well drained soil. Keep well watered until established and in dry periods.
Tip
Plant every 3 weeks for a continuous supply. If cut lettuce starts to wilt, pop it into a bowl of iced water and it will come back to life.
