About the Lettuce

Angelo’s Farm Market veggies are specifically selected for home growers to be productive, disease resistant, and flavorful. Look for both colorful leaf and full head varieties including ‘All Star Gourmet Mix’, a popular, tasty combination of several lettuce types in shades from green to red and textures from oakleaf, Romaine to ruffled for an attractive appearance and wonderful taste. Fast-growing, tender, and tolerant of warm weather, harvest in the morning and often! This mix is excellent for containers or the garden. Also look for ‘Black Seed Simpson’, ‘Buttercrunch’, ‘Green Head’ iceberg, and red and green ‘Romaine’


Care Notes

Plant in sunny, well-drained, nutrient rich soil or containers amended with organic matter like Petitti Planting Mix. Water well after planting; maintain 1” of water once a week throughout the growing season. Feed with a slow release fertilizer, Osmocote® or Garden-tone®. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2″ to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
