Lactuca sativa

Bring home a classic garden favourite with Jericho Lettuce seeds, a heat‑tolerant romaine‑type lettuce that thrives where many other greens struggle. This heirloom selection produces upright, bright green leaves with a crisp texture and mild, sweet flavour that stands up even in warm weather. Originally bred to withstand desert heat, Jericho resists tipburn and bolting, making it ideal for gardeners seeking dependable summer crops as well as cool‑season crops. Grow it for full heads or harvest tender baby leaves for salads, sandwiches, and fresh greens right from the garden.

40-50 days to maturity
