Hello. You can get several different answers. Some leave the ferns until
spring in an effort to feed the roots through the winter. I have done it
both ways and cant tell any difference.

Hello all

I planted some asparagus crowns earlier in the year and they seem to
have taken quite well. I haven't harveted any and they've grown into
tallish ferns. Should I cut them back down to the ground for the
winter?

Any help greatly appreciated
Regards
Helen
