VEGETABLES / ASPARAGUS
Exchange lister Robyn Josephs (PA JO R) inherited this variety in the early 1980s as an established asparagus patch at her new home in Rose Valley, PA. The home previously belonged to Dr. S. Culver Williams and his wife Barbara, who had maintained the asparagus for at least 40 years. Dr. Williams was a member of the Department of Anatomy in the Medical School of the University of Pennsylvania from 1928 until his retirement in 1971. After Robyn offered this variety in the Yearbook in 1986, T.W. Maddox (LA MA T) relisted it and shared it with Alice Morzuch (MO MO A), who later donated seeds to SSE in 1992. SSE Accession # 100922
