Description

With this top breeding, there are no more problems with green lettuce leaf aphid (Nasonovia ribisnigri), which spoils the appetite of many a lettuce lover. Thanks to natural resistance, you can enjoy every head of this deliciously tender lettuce. The combination with resistance to downy mildew (races 1-22) also gives high harvest reliability. 'Estelle' produces particularly large, buttery heads even in midsummer and is robust in growth. With this variety, you can harvest tasty lettuce with pleasure from spring to autumn.
