Oakleaf (45 days)
Oakleaf lettuce was introduced in the 1770s and was known at that time as "American Oak Leaved".
Just like the name implies Oakleaf has deeply lobed leaves that form a tight cluster. The unique shape really adds to salads.
Flavor is not sacrificed when the summer heat begins as Oakleaf does not turn bitter like other lettuces. Oakleaf is also slow to bolt. Perfect for that whiskey barrel container on the back porch where lettuces are easy access for quick salads.
