Park Seed Asparagus Plant Seeds, UC-157, Pack of 20 Seeds
- Developed at the University of California Davis (hence the name), UC-157 Asparagus is a stem vegetable.
- An early, high-yielding hybrid, the plant produces an abundance of long, straight, light green spears with tight, tapering tips and a delicious super sweet flavor.
- For best flavor and texture, harvest young shoots in early spring at about 5 to 7 inches long. Asparagus spears can be boiled, braised, roasted, steamed, stir fried, or grilled. Asparagus is considered a superfood for its nutrient rich content, having a high (top 20) Aggregate Nutrient Density Index score (ANDI), or micronutrient-per-calorie density.
- It is a good source of vitamins B6, C, and K, fiber, niacin, thiamin, and riboflavin. It also contains a range of phytonutrients.
- A cool-season vegetable, one of the first to be planted in the garden, asparagus seed can be direct sown in early spring 2 to 4 weeks before the last frost date.
