Description

An Italian, fast-growing leaf divia variety. The leaves are narrow and grow upright. The plants are productive and are harvested whole like lettuce. Delicious as a spicy, hearty, slightly tangy salad dressed with a little olive oil, pepper, crispy fried ham cubes and boiled egg. Briefly blanched and served lukewarm, it also makes a delicious vegetable side dish for pasta.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

When sown in May, they grow to their full size after just a few weeks. If you sow in good time, you can harvest throughout the season until late fall. The plants don't mind the first light frosts.
