Asparagus season varies based on the climate in which it is grown, though it typically matures in early summer. This is the start of the month of June in northern latitudes such as the US state of Iowa in hardiness zones of 4 to 5, and even earlier in southern US states like Texas with a hardiness zone range of 6 to 9.
Asparagus is a member of the lily family. The plants take three years of growing before they begin to produce marketable shoots, but the plant is perennial and will last up to 20 years, some say 30 to 50. In spring, on a warm day, you can almost watch the Asparagus grow -- a stalk can grow 7 inches (18 cm) in 1 day. When the weather is warm in the spring, a field of asparagus can almost grow faster than it can be harvested. Asparagus prefers sandy soil to grow in.
