Category: Seeds

An heirloom iceberg lettuce variety, first introduced in 1941. Slow to bolt with crunchy, succulent leaves. It's a favourite with gardeners as it grows well in summer when other lettuces shy from the heat and run to seed. Harvest in 11-12 weeks.

William T. ★★★★★

I planted these in late June and they thrived while my other lettuce bolted. The heads formed tight and crisp, perfect for summer salads. Definitely a keeper for hot climates.

James ★★★★★

The crunch on these leaves is unreal, even in the middle of a hot stretch when my other greens gave up. Heads stay tight and slow to bolt, so I’m picking fresh for weeks.

Jason K. ★★★★★

The heads are forming nicely even through this July heatwave, just as promised with that slow-to-bolt trait. The crunch on the first harvest was exactly what I was hoping for from an iceberg type.
