Yes, Phil, it is quite tasty, and quite showy, I might add. I guess it's called 'Drunken Woman' because it flips every which way, but I'm just guessing. I like the showy lettuces because customers tend to reach for colorful plants, but sometimes the reds are not the tastiest. This one burnishes nicely but keeps that good leaf lettuce texture and flavor.

I'm glad you enjoyed the story, Dave. It is fun to share seeds and know they are growing thousands of miles away, isn't it? There are some Cherokee Purple tomato plants growing in my greenhouse right now. You sent me those seeds, as well. Here's a picture of some of my lettuce bowls with different lettuces in them. Lettuce seldom bolts here, so a pot of lettuce by the kitchen door is pretty handy.
