Notes
'Tropicana Pelleted' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Tropicana Pelleted') is a vegetable for containers, low maintenance plantings, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and stays erect. Plan on about 70 days to maturity, and you can save the open-pollinated seed.
Pairs well with Persian basil, Dar Cucumber cucumber, and Fernleaf dill.
