Tango Lettuce: A Vibrant Addition to Your Garden
Tango lettuce is a stunning variety that brings both visual appeal and delicious flavor to your garden. With its distinctive deep red and burgundy leaves, this lettuce variety stands out in any salad or garden bed, making it as beautiful as it is nutritious.
What Makes Tango Lettuce Special
Tango lettuce is a loose-leaf variety known for its crisp texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor. The deep coloring isn't just for show—it indicates the presence of beneficial antioxidants and nutrients that make this variety a nutritional powerhouse. The leaves are tender and delicate, perfect for fresh salads, wraps, and garnishes.
Growing Tango Lettuce
This variety thrives in cool-season gardens and prefers partial shade during warmer months. Tango lettuce grows quickly, typically ready for harvest in 45 to 60 days from planting. It prefers well-draining soil rich in organic matter and consistent moisture—not waterlogged, but never allowed to dry out completely.
Plant seeds directly in the garden or start them indoors for transplanting. Space plants about 6 to 8 inches apart to allow room for leaf development. Tango lettuce performs well in spring and fall gardens, and in milder climates, it can be grown through winter.
Harvesting and Storage
You can harvest outer leaves as the plant grows, or wait until the plant reaches full size and cut the entire head just above the soil line. For the best flavor and texture, harvest in the early morning when leaves are crisp and cool. Fresh Tango lettuce keeps well in the refrigerator for up to two weeks when stored in a plastic bag or container.
Why Grow Tango Lettuce
Beyond its striking appearance and great taste, Tango lettuce is easy to grow, making it perfect for both beginner and experienced gardeners. Its quick maturity means you can enjoy multiple harvests throughout the growing season, and its vibrant color adds visual interest to your garden landscape.

Safe Seed Pledge
OUR PLEDGE TO YOU
Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.
For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.
We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.
We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds. We don't touch that stuff and we never will.
The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center.
Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated). Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.
To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
