This is a unique French variety with long, slender, gracefully indented leaves that are olive-green at the base and tinged a beautiful reddish-brown at the tips. It is excellent for cut-and-come-again use, or will form a dense, heavy head that holds well for shipping and display. Colour is most spectacular in cool weather and it is slow to bolt in summer. Matures in 74 days. (open pollinated seeds)
Oakleaf looseleaf varieties have gorgeous long leaves with deeply-notched, rounded edges and ar well suited to daily harvests of individual leaves or of a lovely, ruffled, full-sized plant.
