    The season for English asparagus has begun and we can look forward to six weeks' pigging out before the shutters come down again. But for proper feasts, you have to grow your own. The cost of asparagus (£4 a bundle at the start of the season) limits its pleasure. You need at least a bundle per person.

    Hope I am posting a question correctly as I have not done this before. I have an established bed of asparagus but have been away for 6 weeks and returned to find I had missed my crop and the spears have turned to fern, if I cut down the fern will it generate new shoot?
