This heirloom is documented as being grown at Monticello by Thomas Jefferson! The original black-seeded strain that we are offering was one of the most popular lettuces in the early 1900s, but is now very hard to find. Small heads measure only 6 to 8 inch in diameter and form nice little loose heads that are excellent for spring and summer salads.
