Abundant, crinkly, light green leaves with a crisp texture make this one of the most popular loose-leaf varieties. The mild, delicate flavor is best if timed to mautre during cool weather. Because it matures quickly, it can be grown later in the spring than most varieties. Non-genetically engineered.
