(Lactuca sativa) Heirloom lettuce once grown by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello. Very popular from the colonial times up through the early 1900's, the small heads of Tennis Ball were often preserved by pickling in a salt brine. Plants produce small, loose heads averaging 6-8" in diameter. Wrinkled leaves have buttery texture and a nice flavor. Great for small gardens, containers, and cold frames. Black-seeded type. 45-50 days to harvest. 250 seeds per packet. CULTURE: After danger of frost has passed, sow seeds 4-6" apart, 1/8" deep in rows 12-18" apart. Under ideal conditions, germination will occur in 2-14 days. Sow every 2 weeks throughout spring and fall for continuous harvests.
