Organic 'Vit' lamb's lettuce is a small, very delicate salad, particularly appreciated for its tender rosettes, glossy leaves, and sweet, slightly nutty flavor. In the garden, it establishes itself discreetly, then offers a generous presence when other greens slow down, making it a valuable ally for late-season harvests. Its remarkable cold tolerance allows for extending the pleasure of the vegetable garden when the air becomes crisper and the beds gradually empty. Easy to grow, it forms a dense and delicate green carpet, perfect for gardeners who like to harvest fresh, often and for a long time. Its compact foliage protects the soil well and helps maintain a small living ecosystem in the active plots in autumn. Its spring flowering, if a few plants are allowed to go to seed, attracts small useful insects and adds a discreet ecological value to the garden. It prefers cool, rich, well-drained soils, as well as regular moisture to maintain its tenderness. Delicate in taste, hardy in the garden, and ideal for succession planting, this lamb's lettuce deserves a prime spot in any organic, nourishing vegetable garden.
