Asparagus Variétés
(Asparagus officinals)
Asparagus is a herbaceous perennial whose tender shoots are eaten as a vegetable. In Thailand, Asparagus is grown year-round. Seedlings can be transplanted or directly seeded 10-15 cm apart. Shoots are harvested after the plant is established, preferably after 12 months in the field. Asparagus prefers full sun and well-drained, loose soils with a pH of 6.0-6.8. Asparagus is sometimes planted with tomatoes, as the tomatoes repel the asparagus beetle, and the asparagus helps repel some harmful root nematodes.
