Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is intended for the production of green asparagus. The plant is characterized by high yield and good endurance. The spears have a cylindrical shape, and their heads remain tightly closed for a long time.

The texture of the spears is tender, the fiber content is low, and the flavor is pronounced, reminiscent of wild asparagus. The variety is adapted to the hot and dry Mediterranean climate and is included in the specification of the protected geographical indication for green asparagus from Altedo.
