Description

La laitue Buttercrunch est un type de laitue pommée avec des feuilles vertes foncées et douces qui forment une tête lâche autour d'un centre pâle :
La laitue Buttercrunch a une saveur riche et beurrée.
Les feuilles sont croustillantes et juteuses, tandis que les feuilles centrales sont blanchies et ont une texture beurrée.
La laitue Buttercrunch est tolérante à la chaleur et monte lentement en graines, elle reste donc douce plus longtemps que les autres laitues.
La laitue Buttercrunch est un bon choix pour la culture pendant les saisons fraîches, mais peut être cultivée tout l'hiver si elle est protégée. Elle préfère le plein soleil à l'ombre partielle, et la température idéale est de 15 à 27 °C.
