We ordered some asparagus crowns online, dug a furrow, and planted the crowns to start a new asparagus bed. Asparagus is a very fruitful crop that just requires a bit of patience in the first couple of years for the bed to get established.

what is the name of the tool you used to dig out your trench? love the donkey too!

I couldn't see the name of the company You ordered the Crowns from on My smart phone could You post a link ?

can I add compost to the bottom of the trench. Do I just add the bone meal directly on the crowns, or mix with the soil I cover it with? and do you level out the soil, or just add a little bit, then add more soil as it grows?

Very easy to understand video. Looking forward to my crowns coming in March. I noticed that you didn't use a raised bed, some people suggest it for drainage, which might be a problem for me. I'll give it a try with a raised bed and see how it goes.

Awesome!

Loved your video, really informative and fun to watched- and the donkey!
Ive saved the video so I can keep referring to it. Thank you!

I managed to start a small patch from seed last year. It's looking healthy and growing well. The down side is it will take atleast two years before I can harvest any.

Enjoyed the video. Enjoyed the planting lesson, but especially liked the background noises.
