Asparagus ‘Jersey Knight’
This productive variety will give you impressive yields each and every year. Its extra-large, uniform, tender spears are good for fresh eating, cooking or making salads. Emerges as spears for harvest at the desired thickness. Spears mature into feathery soft, fern-like foliage. Cold-hardy and heat-tolerant. Harvest from early April through mid-May. Mostly all-male plants. Self-pollinating.
