Asparagus Crowns

Asparagus is expensive to buy in the shops but is easy to grow and tastes delicious freshly harvested from the garden. In our opinion there is no other vegetable that beats home-grown asparagus, simply steamed and served with melted butter or Hollondaise sauce. Once established 12 asparagus crowns will produce up to 10kg (22lb) annually for 12 years or more. We supply one year old hand selected ‘grade A’ asparagus plants which will establish quickly so that you can harvest your first crop (we recommend only sparingly) just one year after planting. Plants should be spaced 38cm (15in) apart in rows 1m (3ft) apart. Delivery is from late March to mid May.
