Product 6/7
This collection consists of 24 asparagus crowns, 12 each of the following:
Asparagus 'Pacific 2000' (early/mid season)
This hybrid variety has been carefully chosen after many years of rigorous U.K. trials and is already proving very popular with commercial growers. It produces heavy crops of uniform spears that are so tender they can be eaten raw. The flavour is superb - it is perhaps the sweetest green asparagus variety available!
Asparagus 'Stewarts Purple' (mid/late season)
This purple hybrid is considerably sweeter than any of the green asparagus varieties. The low fibre content means the spears are particularly tender even when eaten raw, with virtually no waste at the base. Excellent cooked but also a very attractive and tasty addition to salads. Commercial trials have shown this variety to outyield many of the green types.
Available for delivery: late March - mid May.
Price includes p&p to mainland U.K.
