Asparagus KB3 Hybrid, Asparagus officinalis 'KB3 Hybrid', is disease resistant and a heavy yielder of tender, flavorful spears. This is an open pollinated variety. Hardy in sub zero and hot desert areas, KB3 Hybrid's lower winterkill percentage makes this a popular variety grown by home gardeners. Grows well throughout the Midwest. Asparagus is extremely nutritious and has many health benefits! Asparagus is a hardy perennial, and it is a highly productive vegetable. Grown for the stems or spears, a well tended planting yields 8 to 10 pounds or more per 100 square feet of bed. For most home gardeners, one row is adequate. An asparagus planting lasts 15 to 25 years without replanting, if it is well cared for and the climate is suitable. It does not do well if summers are extremely hot and long, and winters are mild.
