- Care should be taken to find a spot that will receive at least 8 hours of sunlight in a well drained area that can be deeply dug (8-10") to properly plant your asparagus. Growing conditions should be given the greatest of consideration since the bed will be more or less permanent, maybe at the edge or end of the garden.
Description
Asparagus is a long lasting perennial, and the first vegetable harvested each spring. It is prized for its flavor, is rich in vitamins and minerals, and is only 30 calories per cup. Compare this to the grocery price of fresh Asparagus, and you can easily justify the effort of growing your own. Fun Fact: 12 crowns should provide enough fresh asparagus for one person for the season. Plant more if you are planning on freezing or canning the spears. Jersey hybrid varieties often produce the highest yields, much greater then older varieties and are disease tolerant. This variety also does well in warmer climates. A very good home garden choice!
