    Description

    Little Gem is a unique heirloom lettuce that combines the best qualities of both romaine and butterhead types. Though technically a small Cos (romaine) variety, it forms compact, dense heads that resemble miniature butterhead lettuce as they grow.

    This variety produces bright green heads about 5 inches across with crisp, crunchy hearts and a rich, sweet flavor. Little Gem is known for its excellent texture and heat tolerance, making it a reliable choice for extended growing seasons.

    Perfect for fresh salads, sandwiches, or harvesting as whole mini heads, Little Gem is a favorite for gardeners who want a compact, flavorful lettuce that performs well in a variety of conditions. 🥬🌱
