Suitably named after the First Lady, this asparagus variety has years of trust and experience as a reliable crop. Mary Washington Spears are known for growing in any soil variety, being rust resistant, and amassing a mature size up to two feet wide! Best of all, this low-maintenance asparagus has a tender, buttery flavor once cooked. Enjoy a plentiful crop yield with the matriarch of heirloom asparagus.
