Garden State Bulb Mary Washington Asparagus bare root crowns come directly from our farms and growers in the US. They can be grown into a hardy vegetable and are fairly easy to grow in a variety of climates. Mary Washington is the traditional variety which consists of both male and female stalks. It is resistant to rust fungi, which can harm other varieties of Asparagus. It's important to note that an asparagus bed won't hit full maturity for about 2-3 years.
