Description
DAFEX RZ is a Salanova red coral lettuce, great for processing.
- Multi-leaf coral lettuce
- Triple-red variety with vibrant colour and gloss
- Incised leaves, the 3-dimensional shape adds volume and texture to a salad mix.
It's a one-cut-ready Salanova lettuce with one cut at the base, the plant falls into hundreds of bite-sized leaves. Salanova means high leaf volume and high leaf quality. Bite-sized and big-tasting.
Dafex RZ has potential for year-round production in Australia.
- Large, heavy frame with a good, upright plant habit
- Fewer fines, for easier processing
- High yields of high-quality leaves
·Dafex RZ features Knox™, a natural trait that extends the shelf life of lettuce. Knox™ delays the oxidisation and pinking on cut leaf surfaces, meaning the leaves look fresher for longer. Particularly helpful for processed lettuce, Knox™ reduces waste along the chain.
