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

...and weed

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.

I was very young when I was first introduced to Asparagus. It was during the
war when an Aunt, a wonderful cook, served it up, cooked in butter in a side
dish!!

I can see it now and it makes my mouth water ;-)

Can't wait. ??? What? Another year?

:-(
