I'll admit it, I grew this lettuce because of the name (and it looked pretty on the package). Turns out that this is the best performer out of the 3 varieties I'm growing. Will grow this again in the fall and will probably be the only butter/Bibb type lettuce I grow from now on.

I'll admit it, I only decided to grow this lettuce because of the name. Turns out that this is the best performing lettuce out of the 3 varieties I'm currently growing this spring. Will grow again in the fall and it may be the only butter/bibb type lettuce I grow from now on.

Notes from the Trial Gardens, Lawrence, KS: In the spring garden, Ubriacona formed loose heads of tender leaves, light green tipped with red. Flavor is light and delicate. They seem to hold well in heat when given partial shade. We planted them beside the Kale Galega, which has huge leaves that hang above the lettuces like umbrellas!
