Seed Needs Prizehead Lettuce Lactuca Sativa Twin Pack of 400 Seeds Each Non-GMO

Lettuce is an ancient heirloom that dates back to Egyptian times. Many paintings can be found on pyramid walls, depicting it's use as an edible plant. The most common variety, enjoyed by many throughout the world is of course the "Iceberg" variety. However, with time, we have come to introduce many additional varieties into the markets. Lettuce is grown as an annual crop, meaning that the plants will establish quickly from freshly harvested seeds. They will mature, producing their brightly colored leaves, later to be harvested in a single season. Once harvested (cutting the crop at the base of it's stem) the plants will wither and die with the first killing frost. You can however collect seeds from a few of your crops if needed. Just allow the plants to bolt. (produce flowers and go to seed) This can be achieved in a few short weeks after full maturity.
