Prizehead Lettuce
Certified Organic
Lactuca sativa
Crisp, loose-leaf heirloom.
This heirloom lettuce is still winning prizes for its curled leaves of light green with pinkish tips. It is a stand-out in the garden and on the table for the brightness of its contrasting colors, much greater than other varieties. Non-heading, despite the misleading name. Does best in cooler weather.

Sow indoors beginning 8-10 weeks before last frost, or direct sow beginning about 4 weeks before last frost. Harvest late spring and summer sowings promptly to beat bolting. Continue sowing until about 2 weeks before first fall frost. Lettuce likes steady (but not excessive) moisture and can become prematurely bitter during dry spells; keep irrigated for best-tasting leaves.
