50 Seeds w/Instructions
Miner's Lettuce is a wonderful wild heirloom green whose vitamin C content helped prevent scurvy for miners when no fruit was available. A beautiful, tasty, cold-hardy salad green, somewhere between a butter lettuce and spinach that makes a wonderful addition to mesclun mixes, salads and sandwiches. Quantities of delicate heart-shaped leaves, each wrapped around a white-flowered stem. Hardiest of the winter salad greens, can be grown all winter. This cool-season salad green readily self-seeds and is a perennial Zone 6 and warmer. While somewhat aggressive, it makes a handsome low-growing cover for edible landscaping.
Other Names: Indian lettuce, spring beauty, winter purslane, palsingat
