Lettuce Seeds - Red Salad Bowl - RHS Award Red Oak Leaf (1,200 Seeds)

Lettuce - Red Salad Bowl (1,200 Seeds)

Vibrant, Versatile, and Award-Winning – The Ultimate "Cut-and-Come-Again" Red Lettuce.

Red Salad Bowl is a stunning oak-leaf type lettuce that brings both beauty and flavour to the garden. Holding the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, this variety is celebrated for its large, loose rosettes of deeply serrated, burgundy-red leaves. It is the perfect choice for the "cut-and-come-again" method, allowing you to harvest individual leaves over a long period while the plant continues to produce.

Each pack contains approximately 1,200 seeds, providing an abundance of colourful salad greens. Beyond its culinary value, Red Salad Bowl is highly ornamental; its rich bronze-red foliage makes it a fantastic choice for mixing into flower borders or decorative patio containers. It is exceptionally slow to bolt and does not turn bitter, ensuring sweet, tender leaves even in the heat of summer.

Add Colour and Texture to Your Salads – Tender, Sweet, and Easy to Grow.

  • Continuous Harvest: Harvest individual leaves as needed—the plant will keep growing, providing fresh salad for weeks.

  • Stunning Burgundy Foliage: The deeply lobed, oak-like leaves transition from bronze-green to a rich dark red, adding instant visual appeal to plates and garden beds.

  • Award-Winning Reliability: An RHS Award of Garden Merit winner, proven to perform consistently in UK garden conditions.

  • Slow to Bolt: Maintains its sweet, nutty flavour without becoming bitter, even during warm summer spells.

Growing Instructions

  • Variety: Red Salad Bowl (Loose Leaf / Oak Leaf)

  • Pack Size: 1,200 Seeds (approx.)

  • Position: Full Sun or Partial Shade; prefers moisture-retentive, fertile soil.

  • Sow Indoors: February to April (under glass for early crops).

  • Sow Outdoors: April to July (direct into rows).

  • Sowing Depth: 1cm (0.5in).

  • Spacing: Rows 30cm apart; thin seedlings to 15-20cm apart for full heads, or leave closer for baby leaf harvesting.

  • Harvest: 10–12 weeks from sowing.

Gardener’s Tip: To maximise the red colour in the leaves, grow in a position with plenty of sunlight. For the best results in summer, keep the plants well-watered. This variety is perfect for "intercropping"—sowing in the gaps between slower-growing vegetables like brassicas or parsnips.
