"Her outdoors" bought three crowns today and planted them.
All we have to do now is wait :-)

I thought it took anything up to five years before you got a decent crop?

I planted eighteen asparagus crowns last year.


I hope to sneak a few from our three year olds this year - but they're not
even coming up yet :-(


Three years is about right, I would have thought.

Ours are just showing.
