Description

Botanical Name: Asparagus densiflorus 'Sprengeri' Asparagus Fern is not a true fern, but a member of the lily family (Liliaceae). Long, arching stems densely covered with short, needle-like leaflets give this plant a delicate appearance. It has a cascading habit that makes it ideal for a hanging basket. Mature plants will bloom in summer with small, white-to-pale pink flowers, sometimes followed by clusters of green berries that turn red in the winter. Florists love the feathery, emerald-green foliage in bouquets. It's also a popular outdoor container plant in temperate climates.
