Deep ruby red leaves and the distinctive deer tongue spear shaped leaves gives this unusual heirloom lettuce sought after qualities. A loose-leaf lettuce that is eager to be harvested leaf by leaf, then left to regrow as cut and come again lettuce, leave it to grow into a full sixed head twirling into a pinwheel shape at maturity.
Popular since the days of the Pioneers, Red Deer Tongue leaf lettuce is a rugged, reliable variety that you'll love having in your garden. Not only because it's simple to sow and quick to grow, but because it's so flavorful and beautiful too. Its symmetrical heads grow to 7-8 inches in diameter and take on a pinwheel shape, with pointed, red-green leaves growing out from the center and then arcing slightly into a spiral. The leaves have crinkly edges and are an eye-catching red-green in color, so they're wonderful at dressing up your traditional green salads. And their tender texture and sweet, nutty taste mean they add a lot of flavor too.
