Lava Lamp Romaine Lettuce

Lava Lamp makes heads of romaine that stay sweet even in heat. And the red swirls carry nutrient-rich anthocyanins right into the heart of the head, so this is more nutritious than regular green romaines. The photo shows this new romaine lettuce opened out so you can see the heart--the swirling red marbling goes all the way to the center. There are lots of butterheads and crispheads with red coloring, but red romaines are rare. And this swirling color is rarer still. OSSI-pledged Open Source variety bred by farmer Frank Morton, who grew our seed. 300 seeds

The Open Source Seed Initiative exists so that breeders who originate new varieties can protect them from exploitation and patenting by corporations. It means that the breeder has freely given up her patent rights in order to keep the variety in the public domain forever. The OSSI pledge reads: "You have the freedom to use these OSSI-pledged seeds in any way you choose. In return, you pledge not to restrict others' use of these seeds or their derivatives, by patents or other means, and to include this pledge in any transfer of these seeds or their derivatives."
