A new and distinct asparagus (Asparagus officinalis Linn.) plant denoted `NJ22-34` which is homozygous for male sex gene was developed through extensive breeding and selection. Asparagus hybrid `NJ22-34` has many desirable traits including homogenous in male genes, good resistance to rust (Puccinia asparagi) and good field tolerance to asparagus root rot (Fusarium oxysporum) and asparagus crown rot (Fusarium moniliforme). Because `NJ22-34` is a homozygous-male plant all its F1 progenies will be male plants. This invention relates to the plant and plant parts of `NJ22-34`. The invention further relates to hybrid asparagus seeds and plants produced by crossing asparagus plant `NJ22-34` with another asparagus plant.
