Asparagus ‘Gijnlim’ bulbs produces excellent quality asparagus spears with a wonderful flavour. This particular variety is also known for its high yields and for its hardiness in the garden.
This wonderful and versatile vegetable is perfect hot or cold. Try grilling it on the BBQ with fresh garlic, or chop it into a fresh summer salad.
These stalks are best planted between March and May. A few spears can be harvested the following year, but it is best to leave them for two or even three years to develop a robust crown of Asparagus.
The best spot for them to grow is in full sun, with shelter from high winds, in well-prepared soil with good drainage. If the soil is heavy or wet, the Asparagus can be grown in a raised bed.
