SalaRico®

All information at a glance

SalaRico® is a new lettuce creation with the crunch of iceberg and the aroma of romaine. SalaRico® can be combined in a number of ways and also tastes great on it own. It’s a real eye-catcher, too, thanks to its fresh, light green colour. All of this means that SalaRico® is the ideal lettuce for daily salads and party buffets alike. It’s quite simply a taste sensation! SalaRico® ist the first salad with its own website. Learn moe on www.salarico.de

For quality lettuce, you need quality soil. The combination of maritime climate and soils makes North Germany an excellent place to grow lettuce. A field covering roughly 15 hectares near Ohlendorf in the Seevetal district of Lower Saxony is the “birthplace” of SalaRico®. Here, in the rich soil of the marsh- and heaths, and under the expert supervision of  BEHR GemüseGarten, SalaRico® has truly flourished. Today, we grow it in the field for you all year round.

SalaRico®’s relatively firm, dry, ribbed structure renders the lettuce resistant to the effects of frost, rain and other inclement weather. This useful attribute means that the lettuce does not turn brown, and instead retains its fresh, light green colour, even when cut.
