Asparagus Seeds - Mary Washington

Asparagus officinalis HEIRLOOM Strong growing variety produces long, thick spears in May and June. Rust resistant, vigorous, sweet, tender and succulent. Perennial. NOTE: Asparagus grown from seed typically takes 4-5 years to reach full production. If you're looking to cut the time to full production in half (or more!), consider purchasing Mary Washington Heirloom 2-Year Crowns instead.  A mature asparagus bed signals the coming of spring, pushing up delicate new shoots when winter makes its exit for another year.
