Today we explain how to grow both asparagus and parsley. Asparagus is a perennial plant that will grow and produce season after season for 20 years or more, and parsley is a short-lived herb. Both are easy to grow and a boon to the gourmet gardener. In today's Homegrown Hint, we introduce Hamburg parsley, which grows like a carrot, with an underground root that is delicious eaten raw or baked as a side dish.
