Yes, I was unsure. for years they use to came from Peru for the factories, where often they are processed. But I have somehow the thing of having seen them tinned with origin China. I'll check and if i found something, I'll post. Never had engish asparagus. I assume from a quick search they are green. Are they wild or cultivated? (i.e. in spain there are both wild, and cultivated greens, quite different) 

 

Sorry. Pressed the wrong quote button.

Yes, English asparagus is green. It is cultivated, but has an extremely short season, about one month usually in May or June depending on weather conditions. This year it has arrived earlier in April.
