We have some asparagus in the garden already and bought even more to plant this year. They are a weird looking when fully grown. The hardest thing about growing asparagus is that you have to wait a few years before you can eat any.

I think I heard that about asparagus once, but shoved it the back of my mind. Good to know if I ever want to try it. Also, good to know that you are able to grow them in that climate. What kind of maintenance or involvement does it take to grow?
They don't require too much maintenance. Keep the bed weed free and apply some compost or fertilizer each year. At the end of the season, the stalks should be cut down and the bed mulched.
If you decide to plant some, put some thought into where they are planted. It will be there for many years.
Good tips. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I'm not sure if we will, but I'll keep this in my back pocket.
