Curly lettuce Salanova-Series 'Tralex'
- Product number: 262570
- Origin: Mediterranean Sea region
- Latin: *Lactuca sativa*
A crispy lettuce from the latest cultivation generation! That means: good (false) mildew resistance (BL1-16,19,21,23). The uniqueness of this Salanova is its ease of use in the kitchen: "1 cut... done!" The heads are cut just above the root, cleaned, and then cut a bit higher on the cutting board: in one cut, the bite-sized pieces of lettuce fall into the bowl! This variety is reddish-brown in color: a beautiful variation, grow them together with the fresh green variety (262580)
You can potentially sow these pelleted seeds the following year; store the seeds tightly sealed in the refrigerator.
Comment from a satisfied customer:
And this year I said something I've never said before: what beautiful lettuce. Truly amazing. I keep harvesting the outer leaves, and it remains beautiful, with no tendency to bolt, every leaf still looks exactly the same. I'm enthusiastic!
