Blue Lettuce Greeting Card

Our greeting cards are memorable, eco-friendly, celebrations of Canada!

Each folded A2 greeting card is blank inside and measures 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (10.8 cm x 14 cm). With its elegant linen finish, the cardstock we have selected is the perfect backdrop to our unique Canadian designs. A quality square-flap envelope accompanies every card.

Both our greeting card and its accompanying envelope are carbon neutral (made with 100% wind power) and FSC certified. They are also elemental chlorine free and lignin free.

This pretty perennial is considered a weed in Canada’s prairie provinces and British Columbia, where it grows and blooms in June-July. Like all species of Lactuca, Blue Lettuce (Lactuca pulchella) produces a milky sap.

The creator of this image was Norman Criddle (1875-1933), an accomplished artist and natural scientist. As provincial entomologist for Manitoba, one of his accomplishments was devising a solution, called the “Criddle Mixture”, to the devastation caused to crops by grasshoppers. His family’s home in Aweme has been designated a Manitoba Provincial Heritage Park.
