One of my most memorable salads ever was made with LOLLA ROSSA LETTUCE leaves—often referred to as the radicchio of lettuces— full-bodied, nutty, mild flavor without bitterness. Texture is chewy. This variety of farm-fresh lettuce has extremely curled-frilled leaves, a deep red that fades to green at the base. The stem is crisp, burgundy pink in hue.

Liz; I have the seeds for this. (Probably pretty old at this point) maybe I should try to see what I can grow!
