I’m a newby at many of these things, especially asparagus.

I was gifted with some asparagus roots this year, but the weather has been so cool, we haven’t tried to plant it yet. She assured me at the time of the gifting that it was very hardy and would grow well in our area. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to do so in a couple of weeks.

Put the roots in the ground now. Add some good garden soil and store-bought manure and hill up the plants in a trench or series of trenches.

Don't expect anything the first year...

I don’t know much about Asparagus. It doesn’t have a crop every year, and it takes 3 years before the first one. I probably would wait till all danger of frost is past before planting.

Lots of things are hardy once established, but kinda tender till then. We have a little asparagus in our backyard. We aren’t sure exactly how it happened, cause we don’t remember planting it.LOL
