365 days to maturity. Asparagus officinalis. Sweet Purple Asparagus Crowns. Non-GMO, perennial, open-pollinated 1-year crowns. This asparagus is favored for its vibrant color, sweetness, and tenderness, making it ideal for raw consumption in salads or as part of a fresh vegetable platter. When cooked, its flavor is mild and slightly nutty, with a less fibrous texture than traditional green asparagus. The unique purple hue adds aesthetic appeal to the garden, although the color fades to green when cooked. Its relatively high yield and long lifespan make it a good investment for gardeners looking for a perennial crop. Produces male and female plants. 5, 10, and 25 packs are available.
