About Lamb’s Lettuce ‘Gala’ (Valerianella locusta)

‘Gala’ is an early, fast-growing lamb’s lettuce variety valued for its large, oval, juicy green leaves and mild, nutty flavor. This compact salad green is resistant to powdery mildew and does not yellow with age, making it a reliable and easy-to-grow choice for year-round salads. Also known as corn salad or mâche, it’s widely used in gourmet cuisine and appreciated for its tender texture and delicate taste.

Why It’s Great for Smart Gardens & Year-Round Growing
