Marvel of Four Seasons is a stunning choice, tasty and attractive, the leaves on this French heirloom variety are a dark green with cranberry red tips. As its name suggests it is an all-season looseleaf variety, we think it is at its best when sown for harvest in the spring and autumn.
SOW: starting lettuces off in trays or modules, seed depth 5-10mm, allows you to transplant rather than thin. Sow a little seed every 2-3 weeks provide non-stop harvests and avoid a glut. Marvel of Four Seasons is an all-season variety although we think it is best sown during the spring and again in the autumn.
GROW: space this variety at 25-30cm apart. Watch out for slugs and snails, they love all lettuces.
EAT & ENJOY: fresh in salad – delicious. Make up your own mixed salad by adding other home-grown leaves such as mizuna, rocket or chicory
