This Batavia head lettuce has light green leaves, sprinkled with red dots. They are slightly wavy, reminiscent of a jester costume, which explains the name. They are also crispy and delicious. The plant itself is very hardy, and resistant to bolting. This allows for a longer harvest with delayed planting.
This variety was developed by Frank Morton in Oregon, who made a triple-cross between the “Reine des Glaces”, “Merlot”, and “Flashy Troutback” varieties. It was selected for both its visual and eating qualities.

Native to North America. The strawberry blite is one of those forgotten vegetables that are making a strong comeback to our gardens. It is grown both for its leaves that can be eaten raw in a salad or steamed, and for its red berries. Although, do not be mistaken: despite their appearance and the name, these berries taste more like beets than strawberries. The fruit should be eaten in moderate quantities as the seeds contains some toxic compounds. The fruits were also used by Native Americans to make a red dye.

The leaves are a shimmery dark green, large, thick, and rounded, while the stems are chunky and can range from white to red. Overall, it gives the plant a nice look on top of its good taste. For this reason it is sometimes used purely as an ornamental plant. But nothing stops you from enjoying both looks and taste!

19th Century heirloom variety. Also called Golden Tennis Ball. It produces small heads with golden yellow leaves. Best for spring or fall garden. Summer heat causes this lettuce to bolt.
Very crunchy lettuce, sent by a friend from France a few years ago. Very easy to go, it seeds to have grown fond of Quebec's climate. We were able to find the following informations on the Internet : "This lettuce surely had the Champagne territory as its cradle since the start of the 19th Century. Then, as decades went by, the name got lost like it happens with so many varieties. It nonetheless survived over time thanks to its undeniable qualities, saved by a woman named Angèle. The variety has kept on existing and spreading around, now under this name. Luckily, Gilbert Vincent, notorious bean collector, was able to conclude, after many years of research that the 'Angèle' lettuce was the same as another variety from Champagne too, 'Alphange à graine noire'." (free translation). The variety is also referenced under its English names in a London publication from the 1870s, The Garden by William Robinson.

Gorgeous romaine lettuce, with narrow pointy leaves gradually turning from green to red. We cannot confirm that the Devil's ears have this exact shape, but we can confirm that this lettuce tastes amazing. 'Oreilles du Diable' is a very ancient variety from France. It's a cut and come type of lettuce, letting you harvest according to your needs.

This spinach variety is hardy and slow to go to seed. Its large triangular leaves can be eaten raw or cooked. They can be harvested as you need, as it is recommended to consume them shortly after harvest. However they can also easily be frozen.
Can be sown at intervals if you prefer baby spinach.
Package: 130 seeds

Light green lettuce of average size, with slightly wavy leaves. The plant is heat-tolerant and doesn't bolt easily. Easy to grow and delicate despite the rather violent name, referring to the weapon used by some First Nation tribes.
This variety was gifted to us a few years ago by a French gardener, Jérôme, and is since a common sight in our gardens (the lettuce, not Jerome).
