The fast, frilly green beloved by home gardeners. ‘Black Seeded Simpson’ is one of the earliest and easiest lettuces to grow, producing ruffled lime-green leaves that stay tender and mild even as the weather warms. The flavor is delicate, fresh, and sweet.

Plants mature quickly—ready for harvest in just 40 days—and regrow vigorously after cutting. Perfect for cut-and-come-again harvests or container growing.

Dating back to the 1850s, this heirloom remains one of the most popular lettuces of all time—adaptable, reliable, and consistently delicious.
