Description
UC 157 F2 Asparagus Seeds
perennial
Difficulty
Moderately difficult. Requires patience!
This variety gives the advantage of earlier production and heavier total yields than some of the older commercial varieties. Three to five dark green spears are produced from each mature crown. The spears are 1.5 to 2mm (1/2 to 3/4″) in diameter, with light bracts. It has moderate tolerance to fusarium root rot. Growing asparagus from seeds is an exercise in patience, but well worth the effort because freshly picked asparagus is like nothing you’ve ever tasted from the grocery store. Like most garden vegetables, freshness adds depth of flavour and natural sweetness because the sugars have not broken down into starches. Easy to harvest and will last up to 25 years+ in your garden.
