Heirloom Vegetable,Lettuce, Parris Island Cos (Organic)
No garden or kitchen should be without the crispy, gourmet leaves of this romaine, the main ingredient in Caesar salad.
Seeds Per Oz: 29,400
Samed after Parris Island, a small island off the eastern seaboard in South Carolina, Parris Island lettuce was first introduced in 1952. Today, it is celebrated as a reliable heirloom lettuce and is a favorite romaine lettuce (also called cos) in the southeastern U.S. where it can be grown in fall, winter and spring. It can be slow to bolt in the heat of summer if given a little afternoon shade and daily irrigation. Not only does offer a long growing season, Parris Island cos lettuce also reportedly has the highest nutritional values of any lettuce.
Parris Island lettuce is a romaine variety with dark green leaves and a cream to white heart. It forms vase-shaped heads which can grow up to 12 inches (30 cm.) tall. However, its outer leaves are usually harvested as needed for garden fresh salads or a sweet, crisp addition to sandwiches, rather than the whole head being harvested at once. In addition to its long season and exceptional nutrition values, Parris Island is resistant to lettuce mosaic virus and tip burn
Growing Parris Island Cos Plants Growing Parris Island cos is no different than growing any lettuce plant. Seeds can be sown directly in the garden and will mature in about 65-70 days. They should be planted in rows set about 36 inches (91 cm.) apart and thinned so that plants are no closer than 12 inches (30 cm.) apart. Lettuce plants require about an inch (2.5 cm.) of water per week for optimal growth. If growing Parris Island cos lettuce during the hot summer months, they will require extra water to prevent bolting. Keeping the soil cool and moist with layers of mulch or straw will also help it grow through difficult weather. Keep in mind that, like most lettuce types, slugs and snails can sometimes be a problem. Select your desired size and color from the available option
