From New Zealand breeding, this vigorous variety was voted the best in commercial grower taste tests in 2006. The consistently uniform, green spears are so tender & stringless, they can be eaten raw or sliced in salads. This long lasting variety is highly regarded for its heavy yields & superior flavour. Unlike many traditional varieties, Asparagus ' Pacific 2000' is suitable for either spring or autumn planting. Although asparagus beds take several years to establish, each asparagus crown can produce up to 25 spears per year & will continue cropping for 25 years.
