My son
humored his crazy mother was kind enough to take a few pics of his asparagus as it grew and I thought you might like to see them... I find it fascinating that it comes out of the ground looking like this. Now, it's my understanding that it can take a few years for asparagus to get established and really start producing, his is only a couple years old and as of this moment he got...
three spears. Yep, ~three~. But he did enjoy them:@)
Day one:
Day three:
Day five:
So as you can see, once it starts growing it pops up pretty quickly.
My fingers are crossed that it decides it's happy and becomes an over-achiever soon...
Have a happy day!
