Hi ! I was wondering if there are any gardeners in this group growing
white asparagus ? Since I love this great vegetable I would like to grow
it myself . I would be very thankful for your advise how to go about it
I live in zone 5 .


I believe it's the same plant - just blanched by mounding
earth up around it so the sunlight doesn't strike the stems.

Sunlight striking a plant produces chlorophyll (the green
color).
