Did you know that asparagus looks like this growing out of the ground? Yup, if I wanted to, I could cut that right now, roast it and eat it. Asparagus spears are actually just the stem of the asparagus plant! We planted 10 of these not too long ago and they weren't supposed to come up until next spring but I guess they didn't know that. We're supposed to get more and more stems as the years go on and this plant can live up to twenty years. Hopefully we get a lot of asparagus for years to come!
