Eek! I am *so* behind in my mail!

I planted Mary Washington, and Jersey Knight. I've been happy with both
varieties. No disease problems, but I do have to fight asparagus beetles
almost every year. Jersey Knight is one of the all male varieties that's
supposed to be more productive because there aren't any female plants
putting all their energy into producing seeds.  I have noticed it to be
more productive than the Mary Washington.
