QUALITY GUARANTEED

  • Asparagus 'Avalim' is a standout early variety, consistently yielding smooth, pale green spears each spring. Gardeners favour it for its reliability and clean taste, making it a go-to for those seeking a dependable crop with less work. The crowns establish themselves swiftly, and once settled, they produce abundant yields.

  • This variety thrives particularly well in lighter, well-drained soils, allowing its spears to grow straight and tender. 'Avalim' also tends to mature a bit sooner than many older varieties, lengthening the asparagus season and providing ample fresh harvests throughout the springIts robust, vertical growth makes it a breeze to care for and gather.

  • If you're holding onto the crowns before you plant, keep them in a cool, dry place, giving the roots plenty of air. Get them in the ground as soon as the soil is ready and the threat of frost is gone. Once it's settled in, 'Avalim' will keep producing a generous supply of top-notch spears, season after season.
