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 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.

"It's so beautiful inside! They always have fun fairy 🧚‍♀️ garden items. The Christmas Open House is spectacular. They have a fun selection of clothes. There's a beautiful area to enjoy with turtles 🐢! And of course, they gave plenty of landscaping plants as well as indoor plants and items to care for them all!"
