Notes

'Flandria' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Flandria') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance growing. 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 is a blonde butterhead lettuce that suits hydroponic growing, and it grows at a rapid rate.

Pairs well with Peppermint Swiss chard, Ruby Perfection cabbage, Teddy dill, and Flashback Mix calendula.
