GURNEY'S - Purple Passion Jumbo Asparagus, Dormant Bare Root Vegetable Roots, 10 Jumbo 3 Year Old Plant Roots per Offer

Seem to work pretty well! Far less than 100% actually turn into asparagus plants but I think that's normal

I CHOOSE NO STARS Will not ever buy again Only 1 plant lived and it is tiny it may not live. Compared to another supplier that all plants are large and alive. I should get my money back!

I could find no fungus or rot on these. I counted full strong roots and they were all there along with a couple extra smaller roots. They arrived fast. Watered once, then about 70% emerged in a few days with temperatures in the seventies, and all except one strong root and the couple small extras have emerged after a week and a half. None of them show purple yet.

I planted them out June 12th, still waiting on July one for a sprout. I did the 8" deep bed with 2" cover, planning 2" cover in 2 more stages as it grows, if it grows. They came fungus and mold free but quite dehydrated looking. They were also quite small, nothing jumbo about the roots. Will see in another week if they are growing. UPDATE, JULY 1st, two of the crowns have one sprout each, still hoping for more....July 10th update, 6 crowns now have a single stalk popping up, so I'm satisfied, but they are sooooo tiny..... I've upped my review to 3 stars. Update 7/12.. 9 crowns each with one sprout now, so upped rating to 4stars, just took a month for them to activate the roots and sprout. Just needed more patience, but I was expecting 2 week results, nothing wrong with 4 weeks if I had known.... Picture is sprout #8, sprouted just yesterday.

Great

They arrived "dormant". I followed all planting directions. After months, there is no sign of life. I have received and planted many asparagus plants before with no problem. These did not look good upon arrival. And now, definitely are not good. Of course the window has closed to message seller or request a refund.

I purchased these because they were 3 year roots however I received 5 3 yr old roots and 5 1 year roots

Didn't look like three year old root stock, that I am used to seeing. Planted a few days after receipt. Anxious to see them grow!
