    Man! I'm so ready for this!
    The Cherokee purples are starting to get ramped up. The first few are small but there's some 2 pounders starting to get color. :dex:

    Those are asparagus “trees” :) It’s what asparagus spears turn into when you stop harvesting them and let them bolt.

    There’s not much to do with them, as far as I know. Typically asparagus is harvested in the spring, which where I am is in May. You cut it every day for a couple weeks as it emerges, before it gets taller than a foot or so, then let the shoots go for the summer.
