West Coast Seeds packets are small and lightweight. However, carrier restrictions prevent us from shipping via standard lettermail. All online orders ship with tracked service to ensure reliable delivery. Because of this, shipping may be higher than expected when ordering only a few seed packets. Adding seeds to a larger order usually does not increase the overall shipping cost.
Flavourful pale centres are surrounded by thick green outer leaves on enormous upright plants. Parris Island Cos romaine lettuce seeds can be planted close together for a long harvest of little leaves for gourmet salads. Given space and time to grow to full size, Parris Island forms huge heads up to 30cm (12") tall, but even at this crazy size, the leaves are tender and succulent, with mild flavour. Dating back to 1952, this heirloom lettuce is named after the actual Parris Island off the coast of South Carolina. Parris Island Cos is tipburn and mosaic tolerant. Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
