A firm favourite cos lettuce that has been grown by gardeners for centuries. Maureen is a superb selection of Little Gem with resistance to Downy Mildew, tipburn and Bremia BL.

The plants are quick to mature and resistant to bolting. They form neat heads of a brilliant green colour with extremely sweet and flavoursome, crunchy leaves forming a tightly filled heart.

This is our first choice of lettuce, it’s simply one of the best lettuces to grow whether you’re growing it in a garden or a larger scale.
