Asparagus

Has anyone else noticed such an early crop? Picked this one yesterday and there are plenty more spears showing.




Not wasted - sliced and added to a nice omelette for lunch.

Salmon in the picture was for tea. We are on a diet as we have over indulged  and put on a little weight!  Roll on the summer and the salad crops.

  1. Looked at mine this morning, 3 spears just beginning to come through. I need to give them a good watering. I can take just one or two spears this year.

  2. Just love asparagus in this house, but really haven't had much luck growing it.

    God bless.

    1. I think getting the good rootstock over a mound to start it off and then mulch them a lot.

  3. I don't grow it, but saw some beautiful asparagus in the grocery store yesterday. Think we'll be indulging soon!
