Amish Deer Tongue
Looseleaf Lettuce
We love this HEIRLOOM variety! It held very well in the heat. The unique upright shape also garnered lots of attention. The wonderfully tasty baby leaf is perfect for salads. Dark green triangular leaves have thin midribs, a lovely texture, a nutty flavour, and cover a crunchy inner heart. Dates back to 1840.
Matures in 31 days. (open pollinated seeds)

Amish Deer Tongue lettuce is superb. Great when small, it gets sweetly crunchy as it matures. Slow to bolt. I have recommended it to others and they concur in my opinion. |
