Take My Asparagus From Pot to Ground

Question

This past spring I planted Asparagus in a big pot and it grew well. I now have garden space and wish to transplant it. Can I remove the pot and place the dirt into my garden, or do I wait until spring and move the crowns only?

Answer 1

You should have enough time to do it now, but you have to do it ASAP, so that it has time to establish before it gets cold. If it does not establish before it gets cold, it cannot survive the winter.

If you are not certain that it will establish before the cold comes, it may be best to wait until spring to plant it in the ground.
