Asparagus is a rewarding addition to any home garden, offering fresh, flavorful spears year after year. With proper care, this long-lasting perennial can thrive for up to 20 years, making it an essential choice for both new and experienced gardeners.
Planting Guidelines
Plant asparagus crowns from April to May to ensure optimal growth. Choose a deep, rich, and well-drained soil, free from perennial weeds. Space the crowns 22 cm apart in rows that are 45 cm apart. Preparing the soil by adding quality farmyard manure in autumn will promote healthy development.
