UC157 F2

[description action=”start”]

UC157 F2 asparagus seeds are outstanding for mild climate areas. This variety has earlier production and heavier total yields than some of the older commercial varieties. Three to five dark green spears are produced from each mature crown. The spears are 1.5 to 2cm (1/2 to 3/4″) in diameter, with light bracts. It has moderate tolerance to fusarium root rot. Growing asparagus from seeds is an exercise in patience, but well worth the effort because garden freshasparaguscontains a naturalsweetness and depth of flavour that isincomparable.
