I planted a lettuce garden mid March. We planted a huge variety and it is booming...
This bed was produced from a pack of gourmet mesclun seed.
Butter Crisp
Arugula
We also have romaine, iceburg, red leaf, green leaf, spinach & onions.
It has been very low maintenance. Occasionally I just have one of my garden helpers squirt a little water on the beds...
I can't tell you how many salads this planting has yielded us. I bet I have saved a fortune on lettuce!
I have loved grabbing my colander and picking just enough for what I am serving...
We have added all kinds of toppings...
...to create all kinds of delicious & delightful salads...
I have loved every minute of having it and wished it would stick around through the heat of summer!
