Try our WINTER LETTUCE 'Meraviglia d'Inverno San Martino' which you harvest from Sep-end of March in a cold greenhouse or a Scarola for growing outside.
Adam Pasco - Editor of BBC Gardener's World Magazine "In small gardens it's essential to make the most of limited space for salads. To avoid leaving gaps where crops have been harvested, sow a pot or two of lettuce each week so that you have young salads to plant out and fill gaps as they arise"
