Originating from Italy, this variety is prized by chefs and home gardeners for its large, dense heads of finely curled, \"lacy\" leaves. The outer leaves are a vibrant green, while the heart naturally blanches to a tender, creamy white with delicate rose-tinted midribs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eEach pack contains \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"19\"\u003e750 seeds\u003c\/b\u003e, offering a generous supply of this gourmet green. Pancalieri is a self-blanching variety, meaning the dense growth of the heart keeps the inner leaves pale and tender, reducing the natural bitterness and creating a perfect crunch. It is more heat-tolerant than many lettuces, making it a reliable performer from spring right through to the autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhy 'Pancalieri' is a garden standout:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eExquisite Texture:\u003c\/b\u003e The lacy, frizzy leaves hold dressings beautifully and add volume to salad bowls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSelf-Blanching:\u003c\/b\u003e Produces a naturally sweet, pale heart without the need for manual tying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNutrient Dense:\u003c\/b\u003e A fantastic source of Vitamin K, Vitamin A, Magnesium, and dietary fibre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eExtended Harvest:\u003c\/b\u003e Can be sown from early spring until late summer for a continuous supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGrowing Instructions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVariety:\u003c\/b\u003e Pancalieri (Fine Curled)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePack Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 750 Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e Full Sun \/ Partial Shade\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSow Outdoors:\u003c\/b\u003e March to September.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSowing Depth:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.5cm (0.5in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/b\u003e 30cm (12in) between plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/b\u003e 10–12 weeks from sowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"18\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGardener’s Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e For the best flavor and texture, keep the plants well-watered during dry spells.
