Asparagus Plants

Asparagus plants are a cherished perennial in any vegetable garden, celebrated for their longevity and delicious, tender spears. Once established, these plants reward gardeners with a yearly bounty of flavorful shoots, perfect for the early spring garden. Though they require a bit of patience at first, asparagus plants quickly become one of the most productive, low-maintenance additions to your garden, delivering year after year.

As a nutrient-dense vegetable, asparagus is packed with essential vitamins like A, C, E, and K, as well as folate and fiber. It’s a health powerhouse, promoting digestive health, fighting inflammation, and offering antioxidants—all while being low in calories and high in beneficial nutrients.

To ensure you have plenty to enjoy, plan on 5-7 asparagus plants per person in your household for fresh eating during spring. If you’d like to freeze asparagus for the off-season, consider 10-15 plants per person to keep your freezer stocked and ready.
