Samara Lettuce

$4.50

This Russian Heirloom lettuce has been said to originate from the Volga River in the town of Samara.  A delicious well rounded head of lettuce, the leaves are green with pink hues.  The lettuce seems to be able to tolerate a little bit of heat and takes a little bit longer to bolt than other varieties of lettuce we have had in the garden.
