Any leafy thing with reddish leaves does better in heat than green in terms of bolting. This is no exception. My zone 9b/10a, we dont really get winter weather, so the best i can do is something like this. It isnt a lettuce, so to speak, but goes well mixed in a salad. I like them as baby greens mixed into other lettuce to make a mesclun type salad mix. It has some bitterness when it gets full grown in heat, but this is true of other types of this radiccio. Germination was near 100%.

Pkg looking good.. can't wait to plant them!

Growing well

I have planted this several times. All I get are green leaves. I don't know if it is just my climate or not. I live in the mountains zone 4B. This year I just blanched and froze the leaves and will add to soups.

I’ve only started three of the seeds in my fall seed tray so far and we have 100% germination! Thank you for your reliable sourcing and look forward to purchasing most of my seeds from your shop in the future.
