Purple Passion

Very good quality plants. Our soil is a heavy clay and we had very good luck with the plant growth. Very happy with the service from the company also. The shipments were nicely packed and well handled

I have had problems with these plants. I am running less than 50% success. That could be partly due to my garden, though I do have many older and very large asparagus plants. I gave them 5 stars because the taste is superb and, once established, I expect a continuing fantastic harvest.

Very good quality roots. Planted spring 2017 in raised beds with 100% success rate. The ferns grew over 6 ft first year.

We planted Purple Passion about four years ago. The Purple Passion performed beautifully right from the first year... lots of fronds.
The plants are vigorous and tend to have mostly very thick, tender stalks... sweet, juicy and great flavor. We are sold on the Purple Passion, and also enjoy the gorgeous color. We received large, healthy roots; we order all of our vegetable and fruit plants from Nourse.

I have been very pleased with Purple Passion. I've done taste tests with various people with other varieties
Purple Passion is everyone's favorite! EVERYTIME!

I've been ordering from Nourse Farms for several years and I'm always pleased with the vigor in their plants.

Purple passion is phenominal. I was not very fond of green asparaus but a friend let me have a few sprigs of his purple passion and I was hooked. They are very sweet and tasty. My roots have grown for 2 summers and they are getting progressively more productive. They become edible in late May and produce through early July here in Wilson, Kansas.
