F1 Hybrid

Some say Purple Passion Asparagus is the best variety. This variety produces beautiful dark purple spears that are sweeter than standard green varieties. Asparagus plants are perennials that can easily produce for 20+ years, so give this vegetable a permanent and sunny spot in your garden. To ensure many years of future production, wait until the second year to cut and consume the spears.

⚠️ These crowns are 2-year-old bare roots that are all male, which means possibly higher (3-4 times) yields.
