Asparagus variety

I garden on the west coast not far from San Jose. I'm thinking about putting in an asparagus bed this year. I prefer to use open pollinated varieties, though I do still want disease resistance. I don't strictly require heirlooms, but do require non-hybrid. I wonder if someone on this forum has some experience and could share information with me.

I have also posted my inquiry on the Vegetables forum.

Thanks for any information.

    We have the Martha Washington variety also. Very hardy and prolific
