Asparagus is a unique vegetable in our garden, but also one of our favorites. It's different from most vegetables in that it needs a couple of years to develop from seed to harvest, but it can produce an annual yield for up to 20 years. This video shows how we started a new asparagus patch by planting seeds in containers indoors. We transplanted them in spring and then pruned them the next winter. We also noticed that the plants in full sun performed better than the ones in partial shade. Fortunately, we have a more mature asparagus patch already producing, and this video shows you how we harvest the spears.
