Bronze Arrowhead Lettuce Seeds

Bronze Arrowhead Lettuce is the most colorful and delicious leaf lettuce, it was awarded the bronze medal by the All American Selections in 1947.

This lettuce has tender, crisp leaves with a wonderfully rich, nutty flavor. The leaves are a dark green color with an unusual bronze shading making them a colorful accent to any salad.

Bronze Arrowhead is slow to bolt, has an excellent heat tolerance and is a great "cut and come again" lettuce.
