Default Asparagus - a weed?


Stan wrote in message
Ive been doing a bit of hard gardening during the last few months, pulling
up large areas of concrete generally disturbing things. I was surprised

to
see asparagus coming up in one of the cracks I opened in a patch of

concrete
some months ago.

I thought asparagus was difficult and fussy, but this is growing like a
weed. I had to pick some and scoff it to be sure I was seeing it. Is

this
an amazing accident or does asparagus actually grow easily?

I have two plants in our back garden under a large camellia that were self
sown, presumably from the droppings of a bird. Not bothered to try to move
them.
