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.

American heirloom, grown by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello.​

Sowing Lettuce Seeds

Sow lettuce seeds outdoors in early spring. Sow in very shallow furrows, and lightly cover with soil. Thin to 8" apart. Full sun to part shade.
