ORGANIC AND OPEN POLLINATED SEEDS

Lactuca sativa

Little Gem Lettuce is a delightful mini-romaine variety loved for its crisp green leaves, sweet buttery flavour and compact size. Unlike iceberg, Little Gem offers a rich, non-astringent taste that makes it a hit with both kids and gourmet salad lovers. Its thick, crunchy midrib and tender heart make it perfect for fresh salads, sandwiches, or as individual servings for elegant plating.

This variety grows up to 6 inches tall and matures in about 50 days. Highly productive and versatile, you can harvest it as a whole head or pick outer leaves for a longer harvest period. With little to no waste, it’s a favourite among home gardeners and organic growers in India.

Sow in well-drained, fertile sandy-loam or loamy soil enriched with compost. Little Gem thrives in cooler months (October to February) but needs protection from harsh afternoon sun. Suitable for pots, terrace gardens, or open beds, it requires consistent watering to maintain crisp, tender leaves.

Compact, delicious and easy to grow, Little Gem Lettuce seeds are a must-have for anyone looking to add fresh, nutrient-rich greens to their garden.
