Looseleaf Lettuce 'Babel'

  • Product number: 266005
  • Origin: Mediterranean Region
  • Latin: Lactuca sativa

Easy, strong with continuous production! This Belgian cross-bred product originated from Stem Lettuce (upright form), Oak Leaf Lettuce Brunia (soft leaf structure) and Romaine Lettuce Sherwood (strong against heat and cold). The result is an upright form, tender and narrow leaves, which continue to "pump out" leaves deep into autumn. Pick them from bottom to top (or from outside to inside, if you prefer). The leaf colour is bright green with a reddish-brown blush in summer.

Names:
Latin: Lactuca sativa
