Lettuce: Anuenue
(Lactuca sativa)
Lettuce is a fast-growing, semi-perennial herbaceous plant grown for its edible leaves that are usually eaten raw. Lettuce is adapted to cool, moist conditions in temperate areas and above 1,000 m in the tropics.
Resembles small iceberg lettuce but is more heat resistant. It has thick, crisp, bright green outer leaves surrounding a large well-packed heart with mild and juicy flavor. This lettuce was developed at the University of Hawaii and matures in 50-54 days.
