beautiful range of colors. It is light green at its core and gradually becomes a rich maroon along its frilly edges and the crisp leaves have a sweet flavor. This prize winner is an Italian cut-and come-again lettuce. Meaning you can harvest the outer leaves has you need them in your kitchen and then come back again for your next meal. However, if you are making a huge salad you can also harvest the whole head once.
