New Asparagus “Cut and Come Again” 
Asparagus elongatus (Manda). Few years ago I had distributed few plants, but 
now have propagated sufficient quantity for general distribution. An upright grower 
sends out stems up to 8 ft. in height, terminating in a broad head of fine, light green 
fluffy foliage, as seen by the photo-engraving. This is most useful for cut green 
foliage, especially as it can be cut with straight stems 5 to 6 ft. long. The great ad¬ 
vantage is that after the heads have been cut the stems will break out and produce 
a new crop ready to cut in a few weeks, thus can be recommended as the most 
prolific plant for cut green. It thrives best when planted in beds like other Asparagus. 
Strong plants, 25c. each; $2.50 per dozen; $18.00 per 100.
