Hi all,
This was a horrible year for picking wild asparagus! Nearly ever road that had asparagus on it at one time has been mowed, cut down, replanted with grass, or house on it.
But there are a few plants that I came across while driving around, although they were too mature to cut and eat... did take a mental note of where the plants were for future use.
Can I dig these plants up with, or without, some of the rootball and transplant them? Near the place that I work we have an empty field with a small drainage pond on it. The dry land is maybe 10-15 acres and will never be built on. I'm thinking I could start transplanting some mature plants onto the property...making it much easier to find the plants next year.
Does anyone have any experience or suggestions with this?
thanks,
dan
