Sweet Purple Asparagus - 10 Bulbs

Larger and more tender option to green asparagus. Wonderfully mild, nutty flavor when cooked; 20% higher sugar content than green varieties makes for more flavorful asparagus. Spears turn green when cooked.

  • Light: Full sun
  • Planting Instructions: Plant in Spring. Plant in well-draining soil in full sun. Resists fusarium, rust, and crown rot. For best results follow the planting instructions on the back of the package.  
  • Mature Height: 24-36 inches
  • Additional Notes: Do not harvest asparagus the year it is planted. A light harvest may be taken during the second season. Harvest spears with tight tips by snapping the 7-9 inch stalks near the ground. Once established, pick all the spears produced. Do not allow them to fern out. This gives asparagus beetles a home to lay their eggs.

"No matter what I am at Bath for, there are always helpful employees to help me find what I need or tips on how to care for indoor or outdoor plants. They also carry pots, trellises, soil, and interesting plants of all kinds! I was also pleasantly surprised to find compost worms available for purchase without a special preorder. Thank you for being awesome!"
