Wild Lettuce
Rated 4.00 out of 5 based on 1 customer rating
(1 customer review) Wild lettuce, scientifically known as Lactuca virosa, is a spring-planted annual that may overwinter as a biennial in certain regions. It is renowned for its cold-hardiness and tends to become bitter and tough as it matures. Suitable for cultivation in garden beds or containers, it thrives best when the soil is kept warm to expedite germination. While studies on its medicinal properties are limited, it contains lactucin, a compound known for its sedative and pain-relieving effects. Commonly used to alleviate pain, respiratory issues such as asthma and whooping cough, anxiety, hyperactivity, and skin conditions, it is also reputed for its wound disinfectant properties.
