6PK Lettuce - Romaine Red
- Beautiful deep red-bronze leaves
- Makes a striking edible border

Perfect in both the vegetable and flower gardens, as colorful leaves start out green, then fade to a deep red-bronze as they mature. Brings sweet, flavorful crunch to salads and sandwiches. The heads (if allowed to form) are thick enough to grill. Plants are slow to bolt and grow best in full sun but will tolerate partial shade and even appreciate it in hot climates. Resistant to mosaic virus. Maturity: 21-days to 50-days after planting.
