Details

Lamb's Lettuce is a leafy green with a gentle texture and mild flavour, perfect for reptile diets or for harvesting at home for human use. It grows in small rosettes and is a favourite among herbivores thanks to its soft, nutritious leaves.

This variety comes in a 10cm pot, making it easy to grow on windowsills, in enclosures, or as part of a container garden. It prefers cooler temperatures and regular watering, and grows best with access to bright, indirect light.
