Lactuca sativa
The beauty of ‘Ezrilla’ is that the leaves grow particularly uniform in short heads with little core. With one cut above the base, same-sized greens fall away for easy salad prep. It is slow to bolt, which means a long harvest, with disease resistance to downy mildew, lettuce leaf aphid, lettuce die-back, and lettuce mosaic virus. Seeds are pelletized with an organic coating for easy handling. Plants grow up to 5″ tall and 7″-10″ wide. Botanical Interests’® Ezrilla Leaf Lettuce Seeds are USDA Organic and have been verified by The Non-GMO Project.
