Known to be the highest yielding plants, they are extremely adaptable. This mostly all-male variety will outperform many other varieties, produces very few berries, and has excellent disease resistance. Ready for some fresh asparagus? Many of our 2-3 year old sized crowns will produce harvestable spears the same year you plant them! Included with each order is our all-natural phosphate fertilizer that will get your asparagus crowns growing quickly.

Jersey Giant Asparagus Plant Care Instructions: Spears can be harvested once they are as thick as a pencil. Stop harvesting as the spears become tough and the tops start opening. Leave them grow and fern out for the rest of the year. They can be cut back to the ground after the first hard frost, or it can be done in early spring before the new growth starts.
