A heavy-cropping asparagus suitable for autumn and spring planting
A mid to late season asparagus that produces a heavy crop of large spears
A purple asparagus with a sweet and tender taste
A traditional and popular thick-speared asparagus
One of the earliest varieties with mid-green and flavoursome spears
