(Lactuca sativa) A pre-1804 heirloom grown by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello, this Boston-type lettuce forms medium-sized heads with light green leaves that fade to yellow-green at the base. Known for its black seeds and best grown in the spring, this variety is included in Slow Food USA’s Ark of Taste for its historical and culinary significance.
