Lettuce Xanadu Romaine Mini | 1000 Seeds

Lettuce Xanadu Romaine Mini is the premium format lettuce variety that forward-thinking Nigerian vegetable farmers are growing to supply the rapidly growing market for mini Romaine heads in restaurants, hotels, premium supermarkets and salad bars across Nigeria’s major cities. Mini Romaine lettuce has been one of the fastest-growing lettuce segments globally over the past decade, driven by the enormous popularity of Caesar salads, gourmet burger lettuce wraps and premium salad presentations in restaurants and food service operations.

Xanadu produces compact, upright, well-formed mini Romaine heads with the characteristic elongated leaf shape and dark green colouration of classic Romaine lettuce in a smaller, more convenient format that is ideal for single serving presentations and premium retail packaging. The distinctive dark green outer leaves and lighter heart leaves give each head a beautiful contrasting appearance that makes them highly attractive for display and presentation.

How to grow Lettuce Xanadu Romaine Mini:

Start seeds in nursery trays or seed beds and transplant at 3 to 4 weeks when seedlings have 4 to 5 true leaves. Space plants 20 to 25 cm apart in rows 25 to 30 cm apart for the compact mini head format. Provide consistent watering and balanced fertilization throughout the growing period. Romaine types prefer cooler conditions so use shade netting or grow in the cooler months or in a cooled greenhouse for best results. Harvest when heads are compact, upright and well-formed before any signs of bolting begin.
