Asparagus is the 'singular' form of that word. If you were 'speaking or writing in Latin' the plural form would be asparagi ... but I've never heard it called anything but 'asparagus' whether you are talking of 'one spear' or a whole field full of spears.

Asparagus for plural and singular. They come in spears. So a single spear of asparagus would be the correct usage.

I think asparagus is both the singular and plural form.

Asparagus derived its name from the ancient Greeks, who used the word to refer to all tender shoots picked and savored while very young.
Of nouns, a few have no plural; as, asparagus, calamus, mucus. Some have only the Latin plural, which usually changes us to i; as, alumnus, alumni. The Latin plural is asparagi .
