Asparagus Mary Washington Seeds- 100 seeds

Asparagus – Mary Washington (Asparagus officinalis) is a time-tested heirloom variety cherished for its tender, flavorful spears and excellent garden performance. A perennial vegetable that can produce for up to 20 years, Mary Washington yields thick, green stalks with purplish tips, ideal for steaming, roasting, or fresh eating. This variety takes patience—typically requiring 2–3 years to fully establish—but rewards growers with abundant harvests each spring. Best planted in full sun and well-drained soil, asparagus crowns or seeds should be spaced to allow deep rooting and long-term growth. Mary Washington is rust-resistant and cold-hardy, making it a reliable choice for home gardeners in zones 3–8 looking to build a long-lasting, productive asparagus bed.
