BATAVIAN BEAUTIES

Lovely Batavian lettuces are like exclamation marks in the lettuce world – tall and upright they punctuate mixed salad plantings and the ends of veg rows when planted at the edges of beds.  An advantage if you are spot planting your lettuces to confuse the slugs and snails - you can find them when you are ready to use them!  You can make a feature of them along the spine of a bed with lower planting around them.  How ever you decide to plant them one thing is sure – they are both beautiful and delish.   This collection contains one packet each of...
