Asparagus Roots 
Asparagus likes 
deeply prepared and 
well enriched soil for 
best results. Plant as 
early as the soil can be 
properly prepared, the 
rows 4 ft. apart and the 
plants spaced 18 to 24 
inches apart in the 
rows. Dig the trench 
for the roots 5 to 6 
inches deep, at first 
covering the roots 
with about 2 inches of 
soil, gradually filling 
up the trench as the 
plants develop. Some- 
times a few stalks may 
be cut the second year 
but the plants are 
weakened by heavy 
cutting until the third 
year and thereafter. 

Tender Asparagus 
Mary Washington. Valuable Rust resistant variety 
in demand because of high yield and excellent 
flavor. Strong 2 yr. roots. Prices on Request.
