Lettuce 'Bronze Arrow'
(Oakleaf, 55 days)
740 seeds $3.00
Bronze Arrow is a fantastic oakleaf lettuce with bronze-red and green leaves. It retains its sweetness in hot weather longer than most lettuces. We obtained the original seeds from John Jeavons, the famous teacher of biointensive farming.
John Jeavons says that Bronze Arrow is "one of the best lettuces in the world."
I think so, too. It does well in all sorts of weather, and it's slow to bolt.
California heirloom.
