Ornithogalum pyrenaicum, also known as Prussian asparagus, wild asparagus, Bath asparagus, Pyrenees star of Bethlehem, or spiked star of Bethlehem, is a type of plant. Its young flower shoots can be eaten as a vegetable, much like regular asparagus.
The name "Bath asparagus" comes from the fact that this plant used to grow in large amounts near the city of Bath in England.
