Title: Celtuce
Post by: Jessie on September 24, 2005, 14:36:09
Has anyone grown or eaten this? I've seen it in the Kings catalogue, what does it taste like? It says: "Celtuce, Use leaves as lettuce. Stems as celery".

I grew it this year for the first time CD, just used the whole thing as lettuce!  They were nice and seemed quite longstanding!

Got some seed but not sown any yet. The theory is that you grow it and use the tops as lettuce and the stems as celery hence celtuce. Like I said not grown any yet. Something to try next year.
