My daughter and I went to the community garden one evening and found this plant next to the swiss chard. I knew that gardeners had been cleaning out their gardens, so I wondered if the Texas wind had blown it into our garden plot. Then I checked Glip, the message board that the garden club uses, and saw a message to me from Mr. Freidell. His family has plot 21, right next to ours.
After some research the garden club members learned that it wasn't a good idea to plant asparagus with other plants. They found a place in another plot to plant all of it.
Here's a link and photo from Kitchen Gardeners International. It has some very good information about asparagus. http://kgi.org/planting-asparagus-crowns
