Default Need Asparagus Help

So I decided last year to try to plant a garden and I thought I would
be cute and plant asparagus. Well, I planted the little plants and
left them alone like the package said. Well this year I forgot about
them and went to the garden (which we did nothing with this year) and
there were tall stalks where the four plants were. I snapped them
off and later on they ferned out. What do I do now? Do I leave them
alone for next year? I only had 1 stalk come up from each little
plant. Will I get more next year?

I am a little puzzled as I am no gardener of any sort and my husband
is threatening to till them up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
