Description

Purple Passion is a unique asparagus variety especially suited to the asparagus enthusiast, whether home gardener or commercial grower. Its special, attractive purple colour, flavour and tenderness distinguish this variety from others. Our field trial confirms all of these attributes with taste tests conducted here. In addition, our trials indicate Purple Passion has productive yields. For best performance, plant spacing for Purple Passion is 6-8 inches apart in the row instead of the usual 12-inch spacing. When cooked, the bright purple colour is reduced, but when served fresh in salads it provides a colourful and flavourful accent. Purple Passion is an excellent addition to any asparagus planting.
5 Crowns in the package.
Grows Best In: Full Sun
Needs: Well drained soil

GROWING SEASONAL BULBS IS GARDENING MAGIC!

Growing seasonal bulbs in the garden or inside the home brings joy and beauty to your life! Plant spring blooming bulbs like tulips and daffodils in the fall before the first frost. They will be the first blooms to flower in your garden in the spring time! Or, try ‘forcing’ paperwhites, amaryllis, and hyacinth bulbs to grow indoors during winter. These bulbs provide fragrance and a way to enjoy a connection with nature during the depths of a cold winter.
