365 Days to Maturity. Asparagus officinalis. Jersey Knight Hybrid Asparagus Crowns. Non-GMO, perennial, 1-year hybrid asparagus crowns. Cold tolerant. Jersey Knight stands out from other asparagus varieties due to its vigor, superior disease resistance, and tolerance to humidity and various soil types, including heavier soils that can be challenging for other varieties. This variety is often compared to another popular hybrid, Jersey Giant. Both varieties were developed for all male plants, increased disease resistance and high yields. Still, Jersey Knight is generally considered better suited for heavier or clay-based soils, while Jersey Giant prefers lighter, sandier soils. 5, 10, and 25 packs available.
