The Lettuce Oak Leaf, 'Lactuca sativa', is an old time favorite. Oak Leaf lettuce makes classy mixed salads and stays tasty even in drought and heat. If you get your garden in a little late, Oak Leaf lettuce may be one of the best varieties for you. Oak Leaf will stay tasty and non-bitter well into the heat of summer. The leaves are very attractive with the oak leaf shape. The plant is attractive with fairly tight rosettes of medium green leaves.
Oak Leaf Lettuce is an annual cool season plant. It will send up a seed stalk, which causes foliage to taste bitter, in heat generally above 90 degrees. Successive plantings of Bon Vivant can produce lettuce spring through fall. Plant in early spring, 3 to 4 weeks before the average last frost date, and successive plantings thereafter every 3 weeks until 5 weeks before fall frost. This lettuce likes light, fertile, moist, and well drained soils. They will grow in light shade. Lettuce grows well near cabbage, beets, carrots, chives, garlic, and onion. This lettuce can also be grown inside in containers.
