Description
Shhhhhh! Don’t tell anyone, but this mix contains new stuff that may soon be named and released. We can’t tell you what it is exactly, but there are new lines (with variations) in here. Reds, greens, brights, darks, splashes, blushes, crisps, butters, leafs, heads, and tongues. Soon to be famous? You might be the first to find out. This year’s mix is an extremely diverse collection of leaf shapes and textures–highly frilled Lollo types in all colors, intensely purple-red or camo-speckled deer tongue shapes, hyper-red oakleafs and romaines, Manoan Leopards, and the many Falstaff variations. Incredible mix for salad, or huge diversity of head shapes.
