‘Eclipse’ Asparagus
$3.00 – $25.00Eclipse is a green asparagus hybrid, released from the world-leading asparagus breeding program at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. This male dominant cultivar is an improvement on Millennium with increased spear diameter and improved precocity (reaching maturity earlier) means better yields and faster returns. Has great potential to be used for white spear production as well. While it was developed for the commercial industry, the improvements in yield and foliar disease tolerance makes it a great choice for small scale and home producers.
