A good range of tastes and textures to grow over winter to give fresh lettuce early next season. 40 lettuce plants, 10 of each variety

Valian - A popular Little Gem type which is perfect for growing in an unheated greenhouse to provide sweet and crunchy heads from autumn to early spring. Good disease resistance.

Brighton - Very hardy and the perfect variety for planting out in September. It will reliably provide tasty and delicious hearts during winter.

Winter Density (Cos) - Lettuce Winder Density is the classic of winter lettuces. Winter Density is larger than Little Gem and packs a pleasing flavour alongside bigger size. A splendid cos lettuce, it remains our most popular winter lettuce variety.
