Today I started 15 Merlot Lettuce plants from seed and I still probably have 75 seeds left to plant later for a continuous supply and to be able to share the bounteous harvest with the Sunshine Pantry. It was everyone's favorite last year. The leaves are deeply frilled and waved and deepest wine red color, rather open, Bavarian-like heads. Holds up remarkably well to summer heat. It's just downright beautiful. I am always amazed at the abundance of food that can be grown from an inexpensive handful of seeds. Always planting an extra row for the hungry.
