I put some 2 year old asparagus in some boxes last winter with the intention of having a permanent place ready for them this winter, well, that didn't happen:( so I'll replant them back into boxes ready for when that mythical permanent place is ready for them. The corms have put on quite a bit more root system so I'll only put two in a box, I did have three, I thought three might be a bit squeezy, a single box is 200 deep I stack two high so this gives me 400 deep filled with lots of compost, should do OK.
A few piccies.....

A good layer of mulch is all that remains to do, I ran out of light, I've got 6 plants to replant so 3 boxes all up, nothing better than fresh cut raw Asparagus, tastes just like peas (which also have to be straight out of the pod):; mmm must plant some peas as well!
