Black-Seeded Simpson Lettuce

Black-Seeded Simpson features bright green leaves that are tender and sweet at all stages. It's been a favorite leaf lettuce for generations of gardeners not just for that superior flavor, but because it also withstands heat, drought, and is slow to bolt--meaning it won't prematurely create flowering stems. Try planting Simpson with our easy-to-use seed tape. Lettuce seeds are encased in biodegradable paper that protects the seeds during germination and dissolves in the course of watering. Simply cut the tape to the desired length, place in the garden or in one of our Grow Tub^® containers and water as usual. This way, there's no worries about over- or under-seeding! 48 days to maturity.
