Summer Lettuce Sioux

£2.95

This medium sized summer heirloom iceberg looks very different from its basic, bland cousin! Its leaves are tinged in beautiful dark red, which only gets redder as the weather gets warmer. Delivering the crunch you’d expect from an iceberg, it’s an easy to grow variety that’s always a crowd pleaser.

Sowing info

Surface sow onto moist compost and just cover. Lettuce will not germinate in hot weather, so do not supplement heat and avoid sowing in the hottest days of summer. Plant out after last frost.

Growing info

Heat tolerant and slow to bolt. When you harvest lettuce, you can just remove the lower, outer leaves to significantly extend your harvest period as the plant will continue to grow. Regular succession sowing will ensure a contiunuous crop.
