Lettuce 'Tennis Ball'

'Tennis Ball' is the perfect, mild lettuce for people who don't like strong lettuce flavor. The bright green, ruffled leaves are very attractive and nicely sized for small lettuce wraps. This is a dark-seeded variety.

'Tennis Ball' lettuce is an American heirloom that was grown by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello.​
