Upstate NY here. Cold and snowy but forcing tulip bulbs even as we speak. I have an Aerogarden which I’m growing cukes in. Will be starting the notoriously slow growing peppers and eggplants the end of the month. Loving all the garden mags!! Oh and will be the first year of asparagus to harvest in the Spring. (New Jersey Knight)

I just ordered all my garden stuff for the spring and decided to get some asparagus myself.

It's going in soon as possible, like June or so if it stops snowing by then.

But hey, it IS after Mother's Day. ;)

heh heh! My asparagus crowns came in LATE November 2011; Since it was rather mild, the ground hadn’t frozen I put them in as per instructions; let them fern out this past summer. They are in a raised bed as I live on a “wetland” and have to be careful due to the meddling DEC!
