Description: Organic Mary Washington Asparagus Seeds, NON-GMO, Heirloom, FREE SHIPPING Mary Washington asparagus is perhaps one of the easiest summer vegetables to grow. These heirloom varieties will grow spears that are tender, heavy, thick, and green with a purplish tinge. You can expect this perennial to be approximately 10" in length and heavily loaded with vitamins and nutrients. Absolutely the most popular and favorite of asparagus species. Once you have established this beauty, it is known to produce for up to 20 years or more Germination in 10-14 days, maturity in 60 days. Sowing: Soak Mary Washington asparagus seeds overnight to weaken the hard outer layer, then plant 1/4" deep and 2" apart in a temporary nursery bed. Keep the temperature at 70-80 degrees F, and germination should begin in 10-14 days. For direct sowing, plant the seeds after the last frost of spring. For greater garden benefits, plant your perennial asparagus and tomatoes in close proximity; these two greatly benefit each other. Growing: About 10-12 weeks after planting, transplant the seedlings outdoors. Digging a trench is not necessary; simply place the plants 12" apart in rows 3-4' apart. Sandy, well drained soil, and full sun are ideal. Keep the soil moist, and apply mulch to discourage weeds. Asparagus greatly benefits from regular additions of compost and other organic matter.
