Growing Asparagus

View the Asparagus page

18 Apr 11 Jenny Graham (Australia - temperate climate)
I have a bed at the back of our house facing sort of west. It gets midday to evening sun in the summer but virtually no direct sun in the winter. I have successfully grown summer cropping vegies here before but have moved them to a much bigger full sun patch. I am wondering if the summer sun/winter shade patch could be used as a permanent asparagus bed or do they need all year round sun.
