Hi Jerry,

I'm pretty sure I'm in zone 5b.

I planted 50 Mary Washington in the spring of '05 and 50 Purple Passion in the fall of '06.

The MWs did very well; we were able to harvest for about 4 weeks last season. (We had our first asparagus of the season for supper last night.) About half of the PP didn't fare so well - bad weather, I think. We are replanting those this spring as soon as we can determine the location of the survivors. They are just beginning to pop up, being pretty new plants, they are teeny tiny!
