    Hello,

    I was going to plant asparagus by seed. But I was just told that it would take years before I would get anything. I was advised to order an asparagus plant. Would anyone know where I can purchase this online for shipping within Canada. As I live in a remote area.

    Thanks

    Leslie

    Starting from seed will only add a year before you can harvest.

    See Asparagus from the University of Illinois Extension

    As they point out, there are advantages to starting from seed.
