description

The 'Sucrette Verte' mini romaine lettuce is a compact and refined variety that captivates with the density of its heart, the fleshy tenderness of its leaves, and its sweet, almost sugary flavor. In the garden, it offers a neat and productive presence, ideal for gardeners looking for a small-format romaine suitable for both family harvests and restricted spaces. Nicknamed "fat" due to the pleasant thickness of its foliage, it brings a simultaneously crisp and supple texture to the palate, particularly appreciated in fresh summer salads. Its good heat tolerance and resistance to bolting make it a valuable ally for extending harvests as the season progresses. Easy to grow in various types of well-prepared soils, it responds vigorously to simple maintenance based on regular moisture and bright exposure. In open ground as well as in an urban garden, it forms beautiful, neat, and generous rows that invite harvesting as soon as the hearts are well formed. Picked early in the morning, it reveals all its freshness and crunch, transforming the simplest meals into clean, fresh, and gourmet dishes. It is a reliable, flavorful, and elegant variety, ideal for those who want to grow a productive, resistant, and refined mini romaine.
