Little Leprechaun is an AGM winner that will grow with radiant shades of mahogany, red, and olive green: it both looks and tastes wonderful. The tightly wrapped centre is sweet and crunchy.
Price for 75 seeds
This variety is part of our naturally nurtured range, the seed comes from an organic source
SOW: a little seed every 2-3 weeks March to August will give you a succession of lettuces. You can direct sow these or, to give them a start away from slugs & snails, you can start them in modules and transplant with less need to thin. Do avoid sowing in very warm weather.
GROW: plant out when large enough to do so at about 20-25cm. Ready after about 10 weeks from transplanting. All lettuces like regular watering in warm weather.
EAT: fresh in salad – enjoy the flavour on its own (with the lovely array of colours) or try mixing with a range of other leaves such as Shungiku, Amaranth or Okahijiki.
