“This is the best asparagus I’ve had!” Gurney’s gardeners rave about Spartacus, a robust variety that consistently delivers long (9+ in.), straight spears of medium thickness. Crowned with purple-tinged tips of outstanding quality, it’s a tremendous alternative to the old Jersey lines, producing a higher yield and improved genetics. This 100% male hybrid is well adapted to cold winters and warm summers—and won’t go seedy, despite its size. PP30712. This variety is protected under U.S. Patent No. US15/732,433.
