King Henry is a medium sized, dark green, romaine
that is heavily savoyed. King Henry is upright in growth with a dense
heart, outstanding texture and thick, crisp leaves.
This variety is slow bolting and suitable for early
and late desert plantings in hot areas and is corky root resistant.
This variety has excellent holding abilities – it lasts and lasts, in
the field and on the shelf.
King Henry is the choice for hearts, for salad
plants and for conventional packs in the coastal regions of the western
United States or similar climates. |
