Transition Farms: Lettuce "flashy trout back"

Lactuca Sativa

Eye catching medium green leaves with red speckles on this romaine (cos) variety. Developed from Frank Morton’s selections of the cos heirloom ‘Forellenschluse’ (Austrian for “speckled like a trout’s back,” aka ‘Freckles’ in some catalogs), ‘Flashy Trout Back’s, upright growth, unique early coloring, and crisp texture make this a prime candidate for baby cut salad.
