The "Product Description" says that it's "also great for asparagus". Is it really tall enough to hold asparagus spears? And about how many?

It is very narrow so won't hold much and solo hard to open, I threw away and purchased the ones from Progressive its larger and easy open plenty o f room for a full bunch of asparagus.

It could hold asparagus but it is 81/2" in diameter and the asparagus would have to be no taller than the container. You could cut to fit. I have never used it for that thinking it seemed too small to be worth it. You do get three containers so you could use all three and cut the stalk to fit for height.

It depends on the type of plant. There is a growing guide that comes with it, but it can hold about eight stalks of corn, about six heads of broccoli, or two small (i.e. Tophat) blueberry bushes.

If the sword is handle heavy it might not look right since the handle will have to be closer to the base. Its sturdy! I can definitely hold weight thats not a problem. but how it would look on the display might be the issue I think you might want something with a wider base.

Lois gave you the measurements - I found that it holds a 10" plant pot - but I think it has to be a low pot or it will look overwhelmed - Hope this helps

It is in the details part of the product description. The bottom portion is smaller than the actual dimensions because iron the basket shape. It is smaller than the one I bought from pampered chef. I use it all the time for grilled asparagus.

The handles are not very tall and you could only place items as tall as the basket and expect to carry them around. I keep onions and potatoes in mine. Anyway check the measurements in the product description and the height of the basket will be as tall your products could be.

I've used a large zucchini in the opening and it was fine. The unit is really well made and sturdy. I'd say it can accomodate a veggie as large as two to three inches around.

My experience: The unit holds 20 of the small (1 3/4" tall) spice containers per side. This is 1 per plastic holder. The tall (4") spice containers take 2 plastic holders. That would be 10 per side. The spice organizer "is what it is". I haven't had any problems with the plastic holders. The unit is inexpensive compared to the other organizers on the market and sure beats the mess I had before.

The boxes are stackable and protect food that can be bruised. They are great for asparagus. The bags are good too and they can be washed. I use both the boxes and bags.

It is true. Very nice value and functional. We blanch veggies, steam crab legs, etc. in addition to asparagus. It's a nice additional to your cookware.Sharon

Yes, I think this would work well for that. It's flexible but SUPER strong. I have 8 different veggies growing on mine right now and it's doing great. Good luck, those are beautiful flowers!

No problem. I have mine on it and it could hold more. It's very sturdy and can be adjusted height and width.

I don't know--I gave it to my son as a present, and am pretty sure they don't like asparagus. They are missing out. Hope it works!

Yes, it will work for utensils. It's about 5 1/4 inches deep so the utensils don't fall out, but they tend to lean over so you need a large counter space to display this container..I like this item because it's heavy duty and looks great in a country style kitchen. It can be used for a variety of purposes from organizing and storing supplies to being filled with small vases or water glasses in each of the 6 slots to display fresh flowers. I like it a lot!

about 1/4 to 1/2 inch shorter than normal pasta length. Haven't used it for asparagus yet which varies in length. I can't actually measure it yet, but ask again and I will. The bottom is rather thin so next time I will buy a better pot. However I do like the tall vs the short wide. Manga!
