About This

• Classic Oakleaf Beauty with Sweet Flavor: Bronze Beauty delivers compact heads full of deeply lobed, burnished bronze and green leaves with a sweet, mild taste. The best flavor and texture come from baby to mid-sized heads, making it ideal for small-scale harvesting and fresh salads. The unique coloration and form also lend themselves well to garnishes, edible landscaping, and gourmet plating.
• Heat Tolerant and Slow to Bolt: Unlike many heirlooms, Bronze Beauty excels in warm conditions and resists bolting even as temperatures rise. It’s a dependable performer for gardeners in shifting spring climates or those extending their harvests into early summer. With light frost tolerance and resilience in cool conditions, it’s a reliable producer throughout the early and late growing seasons.
• Compact and Container-Friendly Growth Habit: The tidy, uniform rosette form makes this lettuce perfect for containers, window boxes, or tightly spaced garden beds. Whether you’re working with limited space or integrating it into a mixed edible border, Bronze Beauty produces impressive yields in a small footprint. Its fast maturity and easy maintenance make it an excellent choice for home gardens of any size.
• Easy to Grow and Open Pollinated for Seed Saving: Bronze Beauty is a great pick for gardeners who want a consistent, easy-growing crop that’s also ideal for saving seed. As an open-pollinated variety, its seeds grow true to type, making it well-suited for organic growers and heirloom preservation. With consistent moisture, fertile soil, and light sun to part shade, it rewards with reliable harvests.
• Cool-Season Performer for Spring and Fall: Direct sow into well-prepared garden beds about two weeks before your last frost date or start indoors for transplanting. For fall crops, sow about eight weeks before frost. This semi-hardy lettuce thrives in temperatures between 28°F and 75°F and becomes even sweeter after a light frost. To extend your harvest window, plant in succession every 2 to 3 weeks.
