Lettuce ‘Apache’ – Irish Seed

‘Apache’ is a very attractive lettuce (Lactuca sativa) with deep red crinkled leaves. It grows in a loose rosette and can be harvested as a cut and come again salad or by the whole head. It is suitable for growing all through the season.

Lettuce is best grown as transplants. Can be started off in modular trays from as early as January if you have a heated propagator (be careful to not let lettuce seed get above 23°C as the seed can go dormant then and not germinate). Sow seeds very shallowly or just sit on top of the compost and water gently. From spring no additional heat should be required.

Average 100 seeds per packet.
