Growing Lettuce

David, you can find May Queen lettuce at either: www.theitaliangardener.com.au which has it as Reggina di Maggio of Franchi Sementi (Italian), or at www.vilmorin.com.au (French). You can order from either of their websites, or they both sell their stock through quite a few retail outlets. Franchi (and other Italian seed companies) you will tend to find in Italian and continental delis, and I know Vilmorin packs are available through Mitre 10 here in SA, but check their website. Both these companies have extremely generous amounts of seed too for lettuce (7,000-10,000 per pack), at around $3.50-$4.30. Check out their other lettuces too like Lolla Rossa, Four seasons wonder and heaps of others.
