bed of giant Washington 
Asparagus for SI. 00. 
Washington Asparagus is rust-resistant, insuring heavy 
yields of stalks from one to two inches in diameter. 
Growth is clean and straight. The shoots are dark green 
with a heavy purple tinge. The bud does not branch until 
well above the cutting height. 
Washington Asparagus is the most palatable and tender 
variety known. It was developed in the U. S. Depart¬ 
ment of Agriculture, by whom we are listed as approved 
growers.
