10-year selection

Salanova®: a product of nature
Historically, lettuce has long been a part of our diet. The wild varieties selected for eating were bitter and chewy. The Romans cooked their lettuce, like they cooked endive.
With Salanova that is no longer necessary!Image

By selectively breeding the most tender lettuces over a period of 10 years, we have created a delectable, modern lettuce. The artificial selection from 100% natural parent generations is done by hand. The result is a pollinated mother plant. From these seeds we produce many colours and varieties of lettuce. Years of patience and breeding have yielded the desired result.

 

 

 

Made with care

The production of Salanova lettuce is a mixture of modern and traditional skills.
Crops are grown both indoors and outdoors so that the product is available year-round.
Salanova production is a labour-intensive process. It is grown with concern for both the product and the environment. Great care is taken to minimise the use of chemical fertilisers and pesticides. Growers harvest the lettuce as soon as possible to guarantee a fresh consumer product. Why is it so delicious? Because the fresher the better!

 

 

 

Many shapes and colours

New Salanova is available in a variety of shapes and colours, from green to dark red. This well-known lettuce has many more leaves than other lettuce types.
In the coming years there will be even more shapes and colours. One example is  oakleaf Salanova. This lettuce is red with a fresh-green heart. A truly unique Salanova with incised leaves.  This shape offers a frilled lettuce with fresh-green and warm-red leaves. Image

Having such a choice of diverse lettuce varieties that are crispy and tasty means that many different salad combinations can be created. With Salanova everyone can enjoy a healthy, fresh salad.

 

 

 

 A healthy alternative

Currently there is such an enormous selection of food alternatives that people can forget how delicious and healthy vegetables are. Salanova is a perfect example: essential vitamins and minerals, without fat or sugar. A combination of Salanova, tomatoes and peppers provides you with the recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C. All pure nature that is 100% effective.
