Notes
'Bronze Beauty' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Bronze Beauty') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance beds. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows at a rapid rate and stands erect, so you can sow it in spring, summer, or autumn.
Pairs well with Dill, Beet/chard, and Candy carrot.
