An old family heirloom that originated with the Hanson family in Maryland. Refreshing in taste! This variety is great for those that love iceberg but want something a bit crunchier. Great to add on deli sandwiches or to toss-up for a salad.
I was on the search for a less boring iceberg type lettuce, and I guess for me iceberg is iceberg. Not much to do about it. The benefit to growing it at home is that it is very crisp and you know what is in it. Just being honest. Nothing against MIGardener. Just my own pickyness.
I always rave about MIGardener's germination, and it isnt any different here. Seed count is likely over 1000 seeds. You probably couldn't even use all of that in a few years unless you were a farmer or giving it away. All for $2!
The sees sprouted nicely but I'm still waiting for the weather to warm up a couple more weeks before transplanting outside when the overnight temps will remain above 40 degrees. They are looking very good.
I ordered several vegetable seeds and flower seeds for the spring
I love head lettuce...Hanson's improved fills the bill in my growing zone 9
Seeds look great an healthy. I haven't started any seedlings yet because the tropics are starting to awaken. I'm afraid i will lose them. I will update you when I have a chance to start them.
Last year I bought seeds from my local store and I didnt get anything to germinate. This year I purchased all my seeds from MIGardener and I've had to give seedlings away cause nearly all the seeds sprouted!!!
Great germination! I'm excited to see how the onions turn out
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.
