Came up and looks great.

Crowns arrived in good condition and every one of them is now up and growing.

My Asparagus arrived the 1st 100° day on June 30th. I know I planted it very late and into hostile weather. But I had a raised bed prepared and ready for planting. I soaked the crowns for a few hours then planted them. I started slowly filling in around the plants but the temperature kept rising. So I decided to fully cover the plants and put on a good thick layer of straw. It's now July 15th and it looks like about 12 or my 16 crowns have sprouted and half are ferning out allready. I am very happy with my results.

I filled bed with a mixture of 2 bags of manure, jumbo large bag of garden soil ( I knew this soil was very chunky not like soil at all lol ) 3 large bags of the crap MG soil and a good amount of peat moss..

I'm excited to have a 3 year bed by spring.

I'm wishing I would have bought more crowns but truthfully I thought they would die a quick death.

I added a package of asparagus seeds to the middle of the bed ( I did crowns all around the perimeter. ) I can't wait to move some of my strawberry 🍓 to this bed and some trailing nasturtium.

The people that tell you it's never to late to plant Asparagus are correct.

Happy gardening

The roots arrived in great condition, and have all come up and are growing.

My asapargus arrived as described, already budding too. I planted them all and they are all growing successfully. Here's to years of fresh asparagus.
