Miner's Lettuce Seeds (Claytonia perfoliata)
Miner's Lettuce (Claytonia perfoliata) is a California native annual prized for its tender, mild-flavored leaves that famously sustained Gold Rush miners against scurvy. Distinctive round, cup-shaped leaves cradle small white flowers in spring.
Growing: Sow in fall through early spring in part shade with consistent moisture. Thrives in cool weather and self-sows readily for ongoing harvests.
Uses: Edible salad green, native habitat plantings, shaded garden edges.
