Notes
'Truchas Pelleted' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Truchas Pelleted') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance planting. 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 fast and stands erect, so you can pick leaves soon after planting.
Pairs well with Persian basil, Striped Armenian cucumber, and Alpha calendula.
