An old standard and one of the earliest loose-leaf types. Good for early spring planting for the first lettuce of the season, but quality declines in heat or late plantings. Still a popular variety. Black Seeded Simpson Lettuce is very early and dependable lettuce. This large, upright, compact leaf-type lettuce produces delicious light green, broad, curled leaves. The Black Seeded Simpson is a productive variety! A great cut-and-come-again lettuce for the home gardener. Introduced around 1850. 49 days.
