Seed Savers Exchange Packet

Donated to Seed Savers Exchange in 1988 by Pam Andrew of Arizona. It was given to her by her 85-year-old great-aunt, Flossie Cramer, of Crawford County, IL. Flossie's grandmother, Emma Hadley, grew the lettuce when Flossie was a child (around 1915). It was a family favorite used in a wilted lettuce salad with hot bacon dressing, and is now among the best-loved lettuces at Seed Savers Exchange. The dark purple tinged leaves are buttery, crisp and slightly sweet.
