  • Asparagus ‘Pacific Purple’ is a striking gourmet variety known for its deep purple spears and exceptionally sweet flavour. The shoots are thicker and more tender than many traditional varieties, making them ideal for enjoying raw, sliced into salads, or lightly cooked to retain their colour. It’s a real delicacy for home gardeners who enjoy visually unique produce.

  • The crowns are vigorous and establish well, producing colourful spears throughout the spring season. Although the colour softens when cooked, the flavour remains rich and distinctly sweet. ‘Pacific Purple’ adds a fun twist to the vegetable garden and pairs beautifully with green asparagus varieties in mixed plantings.

  • Store the crowns in a cool, ventilated place until ready to plant. Provide well-drained soil and plenty of sun, and this variety will reward you with eye-catching harvests that elevate both the garden and the plate.
