| Positive | carminator1 | On Nov 6, 2009, carminator1 from mobile, AL (Zone 8a) wrote: I love the looks and the taste of this lettuce, now that it is finally getting colder here in Mobile Al, the color is getting darker. I have not had any problems as far as pests attaking the lettuces at all and believe me we have had a lot of catterpillars here due to all the rain we've been getting. Will definetely grow again. |

| Positive | rebecca101 | On Jan 1, 2006, rebecca101 from Madison, WI (Zone 5a) wrote: Gorgeous lettuce - one of my favorites just to look at. Leaves are green shading gradually into pink and then deep burgandy tips. It forms a crinkly rosette. Nice soft texture and sweet flavor as well. But despite its name, it did not hold well in summer for me. I'd say it's a better two-season lettuce: spring and fall. |

| Positive | Lettuceman | On Dec 22, 2004, Lettuceman from Dayton, WA wrote: French for "Marvel of Four Seasons," this is one of my all-time favorites. A beautiful lettuce with lots of red mixed with a little bronze and light green on wide, thick and slightly savoyed leaves. I grow this one both in the early Spring and Fall. |
| Neutral | smiln32 | On Oct 28, 2004, smiln32 from Oklahoma City, OK (Zone 7a) wrote: Plant seeds in early spring and again in late summer through fall. The best time is early autumn, when plants have just enough time to mature before the onset of very cold weather.
Four Seasons is a "red" variety of "Butterhead" lettuce.
To harvest, take off the outer leaves or take up the whole plant. |
| Positive | lupinelover | On Jan 13, 2003, lupinelover from Grove City, OH (Zone 6a) wrote: This lettuce, a Cos (bibb) type, retains its flavor despite adverse weather. One of the best for summer salads. 50 days from seed. |
