Romaine (cos) lettuce seeds — crisp, upright hearts

Romaine, or cos, lettuce grows tall, upright heads of crunchy, sweet leaves with a firm rib — the classic lettuce for Caesar salads and sturdy enough for the grill. It sits within our wider lettuce range in the leafy greens collection. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Sow successionally for crisp hearts through the season — the calendar shows when.

How to grow romaine

Sow direct or in modules into cool, moist soil and keep it watered for crisp, unstressed hearts. Cut whole when firm, or take outer leaves as cut-and-come-again. Botanically it is Lactuca sativa.

Pick your lettuce type

For soft, sweet leaves grow butterhead; for fast pickings, loose-leaf salad mixes. Browse all lettuce and vegetable seeds.
