Introduction to Frilly Lettuce

Frilly (or fancy) lettuce belongs to the category of loose-leaf lettuces, often marketed alongside endives and gourmet greens. Its delicate, curly appearance and light crunch make it ideal for high-end cuisine, salad bars, and wrap stations. It’s as versatile as it is beautiful—perfect for adding volume, vibrancy, and texture to plates without overwhelming the dish.

Fancy lettuce from GroSpace is grown in compliance with strict farm audit standards, ensuring that only the freshest and cleanest produce makes it to your kitchen. It’s a premium leafy green with unmatched freshness, grown right here in South Africa.
