“Your success and pleasure are more to Park than your money.” The motto of our founder, George W. Park, has been the inspiration for Park Seed Company ever since its 1868 founding at the kitchen table of a 15-year-old boy who hoped to sell seeds from his own garden for a little pocket money.

Today our gardeners number in the millions, yet we still adhere to Mr. Park’s original motto. Bring the joys of gardening to as many people as possible.

This butterhead (Boston) variety from Germany is renowned for bolt resistance, its crisper bite, and its delicious flavor. Get your garden beds and best containers ready now.
Sylvestra sets big, heavy heads, tightly packed with pale green leaves boasting a soft cream center. Less leathery and chewy than most others, they have a crisper texture that keeps them fresher longer—and the taste is far more succulent than others.
To use these seed tapes with your Sylvestra lettuce seeds, simply lay the strips of paper (already embedded with seeds) down on top of smooth soil in full sun to light shade (or containers, of course). Then rake or sprinkle about a half inch of soil on top of the tapes and water them in well. That’s it—in a few weeks you’ll see evenly-spaced, healthy green shoots that need no thinning.
With the seed tape in this Sylvestra lettuce package, you will have a planting that looks like it was designed and grown by a professional—in less time then it would take you to make all the holes in the soil, let alone drop the seeds in, cover them up, and then thin the seedlings a few weeks later.
