Elan
Elan is a very quick growing corn salad, for growing both under protection and on open ground. Compact, smoothleaved plants that have a high individual weight. Resistant to downy mildew. Tendancy for curling when sown early, hence not suitable for the first summer sowings. It is the one of our varieties that is commercially most widely grown.
