Asparagus not dying back ...
The foliage of my asparagus plants shows no sign of yellowing yet and isn't
dying back ... .... it usually goes yellow and dies long before now (October typically) .... I've never seen it like this before. Question is ... Should I cut it back ? or Leave it growing as is until frosts finally get it ? |

Mine's going yellow, it won't be long now. -- Sue ]   |

If its vegetable asparagus then it is advised to cut it back in October to prevent Asparagus Beetle (Crioceris asparagi) overwintering in it For more info http://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile...gus_beetle.asp Wes |
