Asparagus
 

I am moving to a smaller allotment and moving lots of things. I have
a small asparagus bed which was planted about 12 years ago. I had the
best crop ever last year.
Two questions:
Would it be worth trying to move a couple of the crowns or should I
get new ones?
How deep should asparagus crowns be planted? My originals were
seedlings so I've not planted crowns before.
TIA
