Inspiring as always. Still haven't done my Asparagus and Autumn Bliss yet... with the snow I don't feel so bad about it now...
Apparently snowdrop bulbs are poisonous (from another thread..)
;D
Terrific website. Thanks Steve.
I'm impressed by your asparagus beds. I'd like to move a few asparagus crowns to a better position. I imagine they don't like being moved, but if there is a good time, is this it? They are two years old.
Sooner the better, I'd have thought, before they start growing.
Really enjoyed reading that Steve, thank you for sharing it with us.
I so would like chickens, you are lucky to be able to keep them.
Hi STeve!!
It was interesting seeing your debris netting over the frames and I wanted to ask how you net the open narrow end of the frame? Does the narrow end have a fixed piece of netting ?

Lovely to see and so tidy! :o

Hi Saddad and many thanks for your reply. You are quite right about the Snowdrops being poisonous, that explains why they have left them alone.

Hi Hopalong, I agree totally with Robert, as soon as the ground isn't frozen then it would be ideal to move your crowns asap then hopefully you will still enjoy a crop from them this year, many thanks for your reply, regards Steve.

Hi Duke, your quite right regarding the fixed netting over the ends of my frames which are protecting my Raspberry canes, I use exactly the same debris netting to do this, regards Steve.
