The unique Salanova Core Structure, which took over 20 years for breeders to develop, allows Salanova to be grown as fully mature, compact heads that once harvested create the multitude of uniformly sized and shaped leaves. There are two distinct core structures. »

 Cross-section of Salanova Incised Core Type Cross-section of Salanova Cored Type

Incised Types

While similar in shape to a standard head, incised type heads are more compact, so the individual leaves are tightly arrayed around the core. This allows the individual leaves to be separated with a simple cut just above the core.

Cored Types

Larger and more rounded than standard lettuce cores, this core allows the individual leaves to lie nearly perpencicular to the core itself, resulting in a higher density of leaves per head. By using a specially designed cutter tool, the individual leaves fall freely from the core.
