2 Seeds I Have Never Planted -- When to plant?

The two seeds are: Amerilcan Persimmons and Asparagus. I live in zone 8 - the Willamette Valley, Oregon.

The asparagus seeds I harvested from my own plants. The Persimmons came from some yummy persimmons and some seeds I ordered on line.

I have a greenhouse and a heating pad. Whadda-ya-think? When should I plant???

Persimmons can be planted in winter, or early spring. They require a cold/moist period and then consider that they have a long tap root. If you will plant them in containers, make sure they are deep.

I hope this helps!

I've grown asparagus a few times from seed. it takes a long time to germinate (2-3 weeks). Don't give up!
The official suggestion is to plant it in spring, but i'm in 9b and grow year round, so I generally ignore these rules, your mileage may vary.

I just scatter asparagus seeds where I think I would like some. Some grows. More grows if it's a cleared seed bed, but even in rough weeds some will grow. A few!
