Title: little jem
Post by: rowlandwells on October 22, 2019, 18:10

like some gardeners we grow little Jem lettuce so I ordered a packet of little Jem seed for next season then I seen a lettuce called little Jem Delight apart from being a quid extra its said to be even better than the ordinary little Jem?

so I ordered a packet of little Jem Delight just to see if there is any difference and I thought why not ask if any of our fellow gardeners have been growing little Jem Delight and if there is a difference in flavour and size  :unsure:

I've never seen this one, so it will be interesting to hear what you think of it.

I've never heard of that one but do like the red hearted little Gem called Intred

I looked up that variety in my Kings catalogue Mum and I'm going to give that try next season I also noticed Kings do little gem in pills also having spelt little gem with a J and not a G brain now in gear :D
