Asparagus Purple Passion
Unique Purple Asparagus
Description
A striking new variety of asparagus, vigorous and productive as green types, but with deep purple stem color that adds that last touch to cold salads and crudites. Steam briefly (less than two minutes) to preserve the rich color. Grown just like regular asparagus! For the ultimate in gourmet treats, heap hay over the row six inches deep and the spears will grow up through it; harvest at soil level just as they peek through for pale white asparagus.
