Here's a list of named varieties I've come up with after digging through several older books...

I left all the 'white' varieties off the list as there aren't any, it's a cultural method that makes them white.

ASPARAGUS.

Argenteuil., Early Purple Argenteuil. Giant Argenteuil.
Barr's Mammoth. Barr's Philadelphia Mammoth. Mammoth
Berliner Freude.
Bonvallet's Giant.
Charleston.
Colossal. Conover. Conover's Colossal. (probable synonyms: Conover's Mammoth. Conover's Giant. )
Cox's California Mammoth. Cox.
Defiance. Smally's Defiance
Dreer's Eclipse. Eclipse
Giant.
Giant Purple Top. Moore's Giant Purple Top (probable:Large Purple Top. )
Large Giant.
Henderson's Palmetto. Palmetto. Giant Paimetto.
Maule's Mammoth.
Moore's Cross Bred,
Moore's Giant. Moore's Giant Cross Bred
Moore's Giant Purple Top. (there's some evidence that the Moore's varieties are the same)
Paris Mammoth.
