» Asparagus * MARY WASHINGTON 
One of the finest varieties of 
Asparagus you can plant. Shoots are 
large, of good color and are produced 
abundantly. It starts growing early 
and continues over a long season. 
Rust-resistant. 
Asparagus will grow in any garden 
soil but to produce the largest, most 
tender stalks the soil must be rich 
and well fertilized. Set plants so 
that crowns are about 3 inches (not 
deeper) below the surface in trenches 
1 foot deep. Plant about 18 inches 
apart. Plant in April.
