Red through to the heart – Lettuce ‘Volcana’ defies the norm of yellow/green centres and maintains its colour through to the smallest leaves. With refreshing crispness and delightful sweetness, it brings vivid colour and a satisfying crunch to salads and sandwiches. A Little Gem type, each small head is the perfect size for a single salad bowl ensuring plot-to-plate freshness. 'Volcana' is ideal for smaller gardens, usefully filling gaps between slower-maturing vegetables and perfect for container-growing on a patio or balcony. Plants hold exceptionally well in the ground and have good resistance to downy mildew. Height: 15cm (6"). Spread: 30cm (12").

Thompson & Morgan strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3
