Notes

'Buttercrunch Lettuce' (Lactuca sativa Buttercrunch) is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It stays about 12 inches tall and wide, so it fits easily in small spaces.

Pairs well with Carrot, Garlic, and Dill.
