For summer I'm trying Sierra, All Season Romaine (Cos Mix from Cooks), Black-seeded simpson, and Redsails. Also, We've been saving seeds from winter plantings so I have Oakleaf, buttercrunch, speckles, merlot, Granpa's admires, red romaine, and lot's of unknowns (Johnny's wild fire mix, Territorial Seeds mesclun, etc. but they're mostly cold hardy (survived the winter under row cover!) and some seem to bolt quick in the heat (buttercrunch). Here's a picture of the wintermix planted in spring as it started to bolt -- it has spinach & beets mixed in.
