Lactuca sativa
Lollo Biondo is an attractive Italian Looseleaf Lettuce producing masses of finely curled, deeply ruffled leaves in a fresh, pale green. The green counterpart to the better-known Lollo Rosso, it brings the same distinctive frilled form to the garden with a lighter, brighter appearance.
The crisp leaves have a refreshing flavour with a delicate hint of bitterness that gives them more character than many mild lettuces. Their highly ruffled edges add texture and volume to salads and make an attractive addition to sandwiches, wraps and garnishes.
Rather than waiting to harvest the entire plant, Lollo Biondo is particularly well suited to cut-and-come-again harvesting. Pick individual outer leaves as required while leaving the central growing point intact, and plants will continue producing fresh foliage over an extended period.
Lettuce is one of the worldâs oldest cultivated salad vegetables, grown for thousands of years and spreading through the ancient Mediterranean world. Today its enormous diversity includes looseleaf, cos, butterhead and crisphead forms adapted to a wide range of climates and seasons.
Like most lettuces, Lollo Biondo prefers fertile, well-drained soil with a near-neutral pH and consistent moisture. It performs best in mild conditions, with some afternoon shade beneficial as temperatures increase.

When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter
Subtropics: Autumn to spring
Mild climates: Autumn to spring
Cold climates: Spring to autumn
Planting / Sowing
Sow shallowly, approximately 3â5 mm deep, directly into prepared soil or raise in trays for transplanting. Lettuce seed needs only a light covering and germinates best in cool to mild conditions.
Space plants approximately 20â30 cm apart for mature plants, or sow more closely for baby-leaf production. Grow in full sun during cooler weather or provide some afternoon shade as temperatures increase.
Keep soil consistently moist to encourage crisp, tender growth and reduce stress that can cause bitterness or premature bolting. Harvest individual outer leaves regularly, leaving the centre intact for continued production.

Green Oak Leaf is a classic Looseleaf Lettuce producing attractive open rosettes of deeply lobed, bright green leaves shaped much like the leaves of an oak tree. Soft, tender and decorative, it is an excellent variety for both the vegetable garden and mixed edible plantings.
The leaves have a mild, sweet flavour and delicate texture, making them particularly good for fresh salads, sandwiches and wraps. The deeply lobed shape adds volume and texture to salad mixes and pairs beautifully with contrasting red and bronze lettuce varieties.
Green Oak Leaf is particularly well suited to cut-and-come-again harvesting. Individual outer leaves can be picked as required while leaving the central growing point intact, allowing plants to continue producing fresh leaves over an extended period. Baby leaves can also be harvested young for salad mixes.

Paris White is a historic French Cos Lettuce producing tall, upright heads of elongated green leaves surrounding a crisp, pale heart. The heads taper towards the base and develop the substantial central ribs and satisfying crunch characteristic of traditional Cos or Romaine lettuces.
This old variety has a fascinating connection to Thomas Jefferson, who grew a lettuce known as Paris White Cos at Monticello after his years in France. His detailed garden records document its cultivation from the 1790s, part of his lifelong enthusiasm for experimenting with vegetables and preserving useful varieties.
The crisp, succulent leaves have a fresh, mild flavour and excellent texture. They are particularly well suited to Caesar salad, where the sturdy leaves hold dressing without quickly wilting, and are equally good in sandwiches, wraps and other fresh dishes.
Lettuce is one of the worldâs oldest cultivated salad vegetables, grown for thousands of years and spreading through the ancient Mediterranean world. Cos or Romaine lettuces are distinguished by their elongated upright growth, substantial midribs and crisp leaves.

Lactuca sativa
Parris Island Cos is a classic Romaine-type Lettuce producing tall, upright heads of dark green leaves surrounding a crisp, creamy-white heart. The leaves are slightly savoyed, giving them an attractive texture, while plants are vigorous, uniform and reliable in the garden.
Developed in the United States in the early 1950s, Parris Island Cos was named after Parris Island off the coast of South Carolina. It became a widely grown Cos variety thanks to its combination of excellent eating quality, uniform growth and useful disease resistance.
The substantial leaves are crisp, sweet and succulent with the pronounced central ribs characteristic of Cos lettuce. They are particularly good for Caesar salads, where their sturdy texture holds dressing beautifully, as well as in sandwiches, wraps and fresh salads. The tender inner heart is especially sweet and crunchy.

Red Mignonette is a compact Butterhead Lettuce producing attractive small heads of red and green leaves surrounding a tender heart. Its rich colouring and neat growth habit make it as appealing in the garden as it is on the plate.
The leaves have the soft, tender texture and mild, buttery flavour characteristic of butterhead lettuces. Young outer leaves can be harvested individually for salads, sandwiches and wraps, or plants can be allowed to develop their complete compact heads before harvesting.
Mignonette-type lettuces have been grown for generations and are particularly useful in the home garden, where their compact size allows plenty of plants to be grown in a relatively small space. Red Mignonette is adaptable across a broad sowing season and can be grown through spring, autumn and even summer where conditions are not excessively hot.
Lettuce is one of the worldâs oldest cultivated salad vegetables, grown for thousands of years and spreading through the ancient Mediterranean world. Today its enormous diversity includes looseleaf, cos, butterhead and crisphead forms adapted to a wide range of climates and seasons.

Red Romaine is a striking Cos-type Lettuce producing upright, elongated leaves with attractive bi-coloured foliage in shades of green and deep red to bronze. The contrasting colours become particularly pronounced in good light and cooler growing conditions.
The leaves combine the satisfying crunch of a traditional Romaine with tender leafy growth and a fresh, mildly sweet flavour. Harvest them young for colourful baby-leaf salads, pick individual outer leaves as required, or allow plants to develop into full upright heads. The crisp leaves are excellent in salads, sandwiches and wraps and add beautiful colour to mixed salad greens.
Cos, or Romaine, is one of the oldest cultivated forms of lettuce and has a particularly long association with Mediterranean food and agriculture. Its characteristic upright growth, elongated leaves and substantial central ribs distinguish it from looseleaf, butterhead and crisphead types.
Red Romaine prefers fertile, well-drained soil with a near-neutral pH and consistent moisture. Like most lettuces, it performs best in mild conditions. Some afternoon shade can help maintain tender growth and delay bolting as temperatures increase.
