Try this delicious vegetable fried in herby, lemon, and garlic butter. Mouth-watering asparagus tips are still considered something of a luxury vegetable, and the supermarkets certainly price them as such! So why not grow your own?

Caring for your Guelph Millennium Asparagus remains productive for up to 20 years, and established beds can be cut from the first spears until mid-late June (after which the attractive ferns should be left to grow). We supply one-year-old crowns, grown in East Anglia, which can be picked the year after planting. Allow 30-40cm (12-18) between crowns. Full growing instructions provided.
