I planted these beauties a couple of years ago, but last year's toothpick thin wisps were only useful as dental floss. This year, for the first time, I have something I can actually eat. So what if they're no bigger around than a
#2 pencil? The taste is fantastically sweet - by far the mildest and sweetest asparagus I've ever eaten. All, um, four stalks worth.
Hopefully they will continue to grow bigger with each successive year. Maybe in about 16 years, I can have enough yield for a whole meal!

That's is little fellas. Grow! Grow! Grow!

Warning: Objects in photo are smaller than they appear.

What are these?!?! Asparagus for ants?!?!

Watch out those chipmunks. Those rodents can wipe out your harvest in a hurry.
