Growing asparagus is easier than you think, and these healthy vegetables will bring you much joy.
Asparagus is a perennial vegetable that requires three to four years to become established and productive. Once established, an asparagus plant can produce spears for 15 to 20 years or more.
How to grow asparagus:
Asparagus grows best in light, well-drained soil. You can still grow asparagus on heavy soil but it’s worth creating a raised bed. Choose an open, sunny site and make sure it’s well prepared with plenty of organic matter and is free of weeds.
If you’re lucky enough to inherit an established asparagus bed, don’t be tempted to replant with new crowns. If you want to plant more asparagus, choose a new site where there’s no risk of asparagus diseases. It’s also not advised to plant asparagus where you’ve previously grown potatoes.
