Butterhead

Butterhead lettuce varieties are characterised by soft tender leaves and a buttery texture on the mouth. These lettuce varieties are typically sweeter than most lettuce and have a low bitterness in general.
Butterhead leaves make the perfect lettuce wrap are they are very easy to fold and wrap without breaking apart.
