Giant Jersey Asparagus

Prized for its big yields of big spears, Jersey Giant is one of the earliest varieties to emerge in the Spring. This makes it desirable for warmer areas of the country because it beats the heat. It is predominantly a male variety of vigorous plants that are resistant to rust, fusarium and crown rot. Zones 3-9. Standard grade bareroot plants.
