Mayan Jaguar
Unfurl Mayan Jaguar’s butterhead rosettes into the garden and savor their velvety, spoon-soft leaves—cool, sweet, and richly green with a subtly buttery finish. At maturity in about 55 days, the heads form a dense, rounded cup with tender, crinkled texture that stays pleasantly crisp for harvest. Ideal for fresh salads and elegant leaf-forward platters, Mayan Jaguar brings a lush, garden-fresh sweetness to every bite.
