LOL i was going to suggest just starting them from seed, it's so easy! i populated over 30 plants in my garden from seed from the 8 or so that were already there. Just pulled the seed in the winter, planted it and got a whole mess of sprouts. planted those out after about 6 months and was shocked they all came back the next year! year 3 i started cutting, and now pretty much the only spring vegetable we eat is asparagus LOL. but yes, it was 3 years haha. glad you found some. veseys also carries them, but i think they only have 1 or 2 varieties.

Veseys is very expensive, 3 crowns for $16?
I am not good at starting things from seed I am impatient and start thm too early, then there isn't anywhere to put the trays and so on LOL!
