And you shouldn't cut them next year either (really) Thanks Jon, really pleased you enjoyed it. I was so worried that people would hate it when it came out. Glad to say the response has been really good overall. Phew! Not too late at all for asparagus – April is fine, you have to adapt to the weather. And you shouldn’t cut them next year either (really)

Am I too late to order and plant asparagus crowns? I realise I wont be cutting them this year but am unsure when they should be planted?
