Tomahawk Lettuce
3,78 $
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).

Tetragon is usually grown for its leaves, which can be added in salads or cooked. Thanks to its ability to withstand difficult climates, this plant grows readily in the wild in China, Reunion Island, and New Zealand. It is also fairly easy to grow in Quebec, but it will behave as an annual since it cannot tolerate frost.
Held up by a round stem, tetragon has a really unique look with its thick leaves and quadrangular fruits. Good source of vitamin B1, B2 and C; the New Zealand spinach is both delicious and nutritious!
