Amish Deer Tongue Lettuce

$5.00

Bring a piece of agricultural history to your backyard with Amish Deer Tongue Lettuce. Dating back to the 1740s, this time-tested heirloom is famous for its distinct, triangular leaves that point skyward in a beautiful upright rosette. While most loose-leaf lettuces fold under a little stress, Amish Deer Tongue is incredibly rugged, effortlessly tolerating both unexpected spring frosts and early summer heatwaves. It is a fantastic "cut-and-come-again" variety—simply harvest the outer leaves and watch it bounce back with thick, crunchy new growth. Exceptionally slow to bolt (go to seed) and naturally resistant to turning bitter, it guarantees a steady, reliable harvest of crisp, nutty greens from early spring well into summer.
