Lettuce, Northern Queen

Beautiful light-green butterhead that was a popular in the 1950s on English farms and in gardens. Quick to produce a medium-sized head. Cold and damp weather tolerant and resists bolting until the summer gets hot. Originally sold by Finney's of Northumberland, England, before 1950. Given to The Seed Ambassadors Project by the Heritage Seed Library, England during our visit there in 2007.
