Riptide lettuce

Garden uses

Notes

'Riptide' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Riptide') 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 has an erect habit. The crunchy rib gives it an iceberg look.

Pairs well with China Jade Cucumber cucumber, Fern Leaf dill, and Giant of Italy parsley.
