This is our best tasting asparagus variety. Sweet Purple is a beautiful dark purple variety that is sweeter than stan-dard green varieties. Plants are very vigorous and get into production in the third year with large tender spears. This asparagus can be used either raw or cooked, however Sweet Purple becomes greener when cooked.
