Wonderful, I'm so envious. We've never had any success growing asparagus (have just started a new bed but it will take a few years) and every birthday (coming up soon) I hope for a huge plateful with Lewis Road butter. There is decent rain expected here next week so I remain optimistic that there might be some for sale at a roadside stall. Failing that I'll have to resort to the supermarket at $9 per droopy 5 stalk bunch.
