- Oakleaf Lettuce is a beautiful, frilly loose-leaf variety that thrives in both heat and cold. Its tender green leaves form lush rosettes, resisting bitterness and offering a cut-and-come-again harvest. Quick-growing and compact, it reaches harvest size in six weeks. Royal Oakleaf is also heat-tolerant, bolting slower than other varieties, though seeds require cool temperatures to germinate. Originally from Egypt, this variety was first listed in 1771

About Sow Delicious
In 2013, Vanessa Jacobs set out to find the simplest way to grow a garden fit for a foodie, giving people the opportunity to proudly plant a garden that is Sow Delicious! She came up with the idea for the ‘Slab of Seed’ which might look like a slab of chocolate, but is made from a special blend of organically enriched super-soil and infused with rare heirloom seed – the purest & oldest seed on earth which is also non-GMO. The slabs are handmade in a unique little chocolate factory in the heart of Eden in The Garden Route.
