Tango Leaf Lettuce

This is a tried and true MIgardener favorite! This variety has a texture unlike any other lettuce around. The texture is caused by hundreds of crinkles in the leaves. The lettuce is cold hardy and can overwinter without any protection. Light green crinkled leaves often cause this lettuce to be confused with the endive. Not as heat tolerant as other varieties but makes up for it by how successful it is in the cold. Grows great in full sun or partial sun and grows well in containers.
