I thought asparagus was difficult and fussy, but this is growing like a
weed. I had to pick some and scoff it to be sure I was seeing it. Is this
an amazing accident or does asparagus actually grow easily?

i don't think it is especially fussy, it's just that as the plants are
perennial, and to get a good crop people put a fair bit of effort into
the be preparation.
