ITALIENISCHER

55 days. Once you grow this variety, you’ll know why many people describe Italienischer as a truly magnificent lettuce. Tall, upright, and sturdy 18 inch, bright green plants are huge, providing more sustenance per plant than any other variety we know of. Even at its most mature size, this lettuce is sweet and crisp when others have become bitter in summers heat. Sow spring to fall, and space them farther apart than you normally do.
