Lettuce ‘Ultimate Mixed’
Lettuce Ultimate Mix Seeds
Last year I stuck to a single variety and after a few weeks, I had to admit, it got a bit boring. This year however, I’m going to try and mix things up a little and plant the ‘Ultimate Mixed’ lettuce to add a lot of colour and taste variation to the salad bowl.
Lettuce Ultimate Mixed is an exciting compilation of named varieties with excellent Nasonovia (green aphid) and mildew resistance, so top quality lettuce can be produced without the need of chemical sprays. Lettuce Ultimate Mixed contains a range of colours, tastes and textures, both leaf and hearting types, for harvest throughout summer and autumn.
The dark green leaves of lettuce are a good source of beta-carotene and Vitamin A, so not only will your veg patch or allotment be easy on the eye, but also very good for your and your family and friends.
Tip: if you, like me, end up with more lettuce than you bargained for, try making lettuce soup.
You can buy Lettuce Ultimate Mixed seeds from Thompson & Morgan.
