Notes
'Hampton' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Hampton') is a vegetable for containers and food gardens, and it takes little work. 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 is ready to pick in 55 days.
Pairs well with Spinach, Fernleaf dill, and Persian basil.
