Planting ASPARAGUS From Start To Finish [COMPLETE GUIDE]

Growing asparagus is something every gardener should do! Asparagus roots have a lifespan of 20-30 years, so if you plant them once, they'll feed you for decades! This is a complete guide from start to finish on planting asparagus bare roots, including final results.

I purchased asparagus bare root from a local supplier. The asparagus varieties I selected are Pacific Purple asparagus and Jersey Supreme asparagus. We are planting asparagus crowns of those varieties.
