Lettuce Webbs Wonderful


Introducing Lettuce Webb's Wonderful Seeds, the most popular and widely grown lettuce variety. Known for its large, frilly, crisp heads, Webb's Wonderful is slow to run to seed, even in hot weather. While it takes longer to harvest due to its size, the result is a bountiful yield of delicious, crunchy lettuce.
Handy Tip: Regular watering around the roots and not on the foliage is essential, especially 7-10 days before maturity.

Lettuce Winter Density (Semi-cos type)


Discover Lettuce Winter Density, an RHS Award-winning semi-cos type known for its excellent flavour and hardiness. This variety features large, well-wrapped heads, making it perfect for overwintering outside or under cloches for an early spring crop. Enjoy fresh, crisp salad greens with outstanding winter hardiness, ideal for any garden.
Handy Tip: Watch out for bird and slug damage in the spring, as young leaves are a tempting meal for wildlife at that time of year.
