Notes
'Salanova Red Tango' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Salanova Red Tango') is a vegetable for containers, low maintenance gardens, and food gardens. 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. Plan on 55 days to maturity.
Pairs well with Early Wonder Tall Top beet, Giant of Italy parsley, and Persian basil.
