Does anybody know what kind of lettuce I have here? Appears to be two different kinds.
Cheers for any help.

You'll have to give us a bit more to go on ...
(edit) sorry, pics have appeared now
I think I've grown these. The packet is Mr Fothergill's Lettuce Salad Bowl Red & Green Mixed.
The description says "Attractive oak leaves, pick individually or as whole heads. In a footnote on the packet it says "Contains Lettuce: Salad Bowl and Red Salad Bowl in equal quantities."Last edited by Martin H; 30-09-2015, 05:24 PM.Comment

I agree it looks more like salad bowl than lollo rossa which is a bit more frilly at the edges. It definitely looks like a cut and come again type rather than a hearting type.A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP. - Leonard NimoyComment

hello
I agree with "salad bowl oak leaves" . My veg.seller on marketplace assured me a few years ago that they =feuilles de chêne in Fr. were the easiest salads to grow for a beginner , as they don't shoot up.. Exactly! Good to Cut leaves as needed.They show up nicely as a base for dwarf tomatoes,or lightly toasted bread and slightly melted (not mature) goat cheese. @+PBlineComment
