Jersey Supreme

Love the flavor, I bought last year and light harvest this ya=ear. These fill in bare spots.

Asparagus Crowns

The asparagus plants arrived on time and in good condition.

Beautiful green plants

They had lots of healthy roots growing out bottom of pot so I cut pot & planted them in my asparagus bed the same day they arrived. I have high hopes of their complete success!

From Trudy | September 07, 2018


I tried it, and I liked it!

I'll for sure use this site again. One of the asparagus had some damage to it, but I feel like it will live, and everything else looked really healthy. I will use this site more regularly! I feel like it has a great variety, and the plants you get are healthy, and reasonably priced.

Very Happy So Far

As all gardeners know things can happen to what we plant. My young asparagus are starting to come up. I received 23 supple and plump crowns of varied size. I dug my 6x8 ft bed 12" deep and created 3 mounded rows 6" high. Laid the crowns on the mounds and filled in with soil. About 3-4" is covering the crowns now and I will be filling in soon to make it 6" over the crowns. my soil is very sandy, acidic. I added some compost, fertilizer and last year's oak leaves.I often buy from Amazon (Prime member) but wanted 1 yr crowns from a grower specializing in asparagus. It was worth the shipping cost.

Asparagus Crowns

I received 20 of my Asparagus crowns, well packed and prompt delivery. I contacted you before buying regarding what variety was appropriate for my area nearly 5,000' on a mountain in NC. Received a swift response, info really helpful!

Great quality

I planted 20 crowns of Jersey Supreme Asparagus and all 20 came up. The last ones did take about 6 weeks, though. Asparagus sure takes patience. I actually ended up with four extra crowns and gave them to a friend who has had no luck growing asparagus. I hope to hear that she was successful this time.

Jersey Supreme crowns

Received super timely. Planted my asparagus crowns, cant wait to see them grow. As a first timer, when will I see the first foliage? Crowns looked to be a nice size.

From Kimberly | June 13, 2013


Jersey Supreme Asparagus

I have purchased asparagus plants in Spring 2012 and 2013. On both shipments the quality was excellent, the delivery very timely, and the price reasonable. The crowns planted in 2012 all re-emerged this Spring with some spears large .enough to harvest, which I forced myself to not cut till next year.--Good self-control. You will be richly rewarded next year!

I found the Jersey Supreme Asparagus to be exculpatory upon delivery and had a wonderful experience and will keep ordering from your company and will refer your company

I bought Jersey Supreme Asparagus and can't recommend these beautiful crowns enough. They looked very healthy and mature and have grown wonderfully!

From lael | May 06, 2013


My Asparagus bed

This was my first order from this company and I'm very pleased. The shipping was fast and professional. I put this bed together and planted it a bit later then I should have, but happily I had 18 of the 20 asparagus crowns come up! A couple more years and I'll be enjoying the harvest!

Jersey Supreme Asparagus

Asparagus roots arrived healthy looking, well packed, Excellent germination. Wish they could have been shipped sooner for our Virginia spring.

Jersey Supreme Asparagus

This is the 4th year for our Jersey Supreme Asparagus patch. We are getting 12 to 15 spears a day from our 20 plants. Tender and full of flavor. Grilled some on Mother's Day for my wife in an aluminum cooking bag. A little Olive oil, lemon pepper seasoning and 8-10 minutes on the grill turning frequently. Yum Yum!!
