WC - we have a 12 x 12 bed of asparagus. Now the ferns are taller than I am and once we get a frost they turn yellow. Then they get cut back to the ground, everything gets compost, paths get redefined and all the ferns go through the chipper for the six compost piles. It's a day long job. This is how it looked last time it was cleaned up, in April.

Victor - maybe the Koi could have used some Japanese irises to keep them company.
