The fern like foliage makes a perennial border or a background for flowers, lining a walkway. Eat fresh, frozen or canned. At planting, add good amounts of manure and compost. Dig trenches 8 to 10 inches deep and plant the crowns 12 to 18 inches apart. Click for specific growing info.

A new very flavorful all male variety. Since it doesn't produce flowers or seeds, all the energy goes into making delicious, tender spears. This variety is much more productive than traditional varieties. Expect loads of new tender spears each spring. full description

For the asparagus connoisseur. The purple spears have a 20% higher sugar content. Sweet Purple is often eaten raw. Very tender when cooked, the sweetness gives this asparagus a mild, nutty flavor. full description
