Asparagus-Seed

Approximately 800 seeds per OZ.
A delicious perennial vegetable. An asparagus bed will last for many years. Grows best in soils with a pH of 6.7 to 7.0. Soil should be light and rich in organic matter.
PLANTING SEEDS: Soak seeds for 48 hours at 85-90F before sowing. Place seeds 2″ “deep and 1/2” apart in a row outside after soil has warmed up. Keep soil loose and weed free. Transplant the following year to a permanent location. After transplanting, take only a light cutting off the first year and regularly there after. Seeds may also be started indoors in deep peat pots.
