Why Grow Asparagus Seeds?
Growing asparagus from seed is a wise choice for any gardener looking to enjoy delicious, tender veg year after year. Asparagus is a long-lived perennial crop – after planting, it can provide harvests for many seasons to come. With proper care, an asparagus bed can remain productive for up to 20 years!
While your asparagus seeds will require patience as they develop strong root systems, mature asparagus plants are hardy and require minimal attention. With well-drained soil and ample sunlight, they can thrive with only regular watering and occasional fertilising.
Asparagus makes a delicious side dish, whether steamed, sautéed, or roasted. Our range includes the popular RHS Asparagus Connover's Colossal, known for its thick, tender spears and excellent flavour. For those looking for something different, try our high-yielding Asparagus Ariane F1 Seeds.
