Title: Asparagus Ariane in tubs...
Post by: Isleworth on May 21, 2010, 21:56:41
Popped in to our local G/C today to get some netting and they had large pots of Asparagus with really good growth readuced by 50%... Purchased four tubs most have three crowns  :D

Some of the crowns are really long and I have supported them with sticks and string to support them until I can get a bed built, but was thinking about a large builders bath thats sitting in the shed that was used for the goldfish when we moved the pond, and wondered if i could purhaps use it as a bed for the asparagus semi sunken.

Looks the same as this but blue:(http://i.ebayimg.com/16/!Bs)WR7wB2k~$(KGrHqQH-CYEvE8+5kLeBL5UIFvmTQ~~_35.JPG)

Was thinking I could drill some holes in it for drainage and then fill it and transplant the potted asparagus??
