Asparagus grows wild along many country roads...It takes a couple of years to get your asparagus to a large enough size to make a meal. But when it goes to seed in mid summer you can find it growing along country roads. Been there for years and worth digging up and replanting in your garden...the plants last decades and continue to give you good fruit.....I made one mistake with mine, I mulched in 2 yeas ago to keep the weeds down and the mulch killed most of the plants. I think it leached something into the soil that killed the plants....It takes several years for it to produce well..
Well, I will keep that in mind. I wonder how it would do here in the great NorthWet.
