Notes
'Calmar' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Calmar') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance plots. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and has an erect habit, so you can sow it in spring or autumn.
Pairs well with Early Wonder Tall Top beet, Santo cilantro, and Long Island Mammoth dill.
