Mary Washington is a classic heirloom perennial known for its robust flavor and uniform green spears. This vigorous variety grows into towering, airy ferns reaching up to 1.5 meters in height after the spring harvest. It thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Highly resistant to asparagus rust, it provides reliable yields for decades. Its soft, feathery foliage adds ornamental value to the garden before the plant goes dormant in winter.
