Growing Tips:
- Sow seeds in pots or seed trays in spring (September–November in most Australian climates)
- Sow 6mm deep and keep moist — germination takes 2–8 weeks
- Transplant seedlings (crowns) to a permanent bed once established — asparagus dislikes being moved
- Prefers full sun and deep, well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly alkaline pH
- Space plants 30–45 cm apart in rows 1–1.5 metres apart
- Do not harvest in the first 2 years — allow plants to establish for maximum long-term yield
- Feed generously each year with compost or a balanced fertiliser after harvest
