Is it possible/advisable to move an established asparagus bed?

It's possible but not advisable!

Fully mature asparagus plants will probably have a root system at least 3 feet across which will take some getting out intact and will not thank you much for trying!

It can be done however; have a look at THIS article about how they do it in the US of A.

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
