This early maturing asparagus has purple tipped, thick spears and is described as a very productive variety. Since asparagus originated in a maritime habitat, it thrives in soils that are too saline for normal weeds to grow in. Thus a little salt was traditionally used to suppress weeds in asparagus beds. Soil fertility is a large factor in asparagus success.
