Description

“This is a big upright oak, ice green with somewhat savoyed leaves that comes from ‘Crisp Mint’ romaine in the parentage. The leaves have rather fancy “”ears,”” elongated tips that extend from the head, and form heavy strong hearts. The best mildew resistance out of the 5 Elf Ear lines we compared. Farm Original Variety!”
