Lettuce/Lattuga
Lettuces can be divided into two categories; head lettuces
which consist of
round and Cos types, and leaf lettuces.
Heading varieties prefer cooler temperatures (50-60°F).
Cos and leaf lettuces are more tolerant to warmer
temperatures. Lettuces thrive on well fertilized soils high in
nitrogen and should be watered regularly.

Endive/Endivia and Escarole/Escarola
The texture and flavour of endives and escaroles are
very
similar to each other. Like chicory they tend to be
slightly bitter but sweeten in colder temperatures.
These plants can withstand cold dry weather but do not
tolerate hot dry spells.
