Asparagus

Loved it when I noticed that the color of the stripes in the tablecloth were also on the asparagus! What are those little triangular things called? I heard it takes 7 years for an asparagus plant to produce, a lovely vegetable. Fun to paint, and eat :)

  1. Great painting, and interesting to find out that it takes 7 years to produce. I planted some in my garden this year and it is so thin I can believe it will take that long.

  2. Doug, I checked what I thought I knew, and found out it's 3 years, when they are finger thickness and about 8". I am jealous, your garden sounds great.Thanks for commenting on my painting!
