FOXTAIL FERN

Foxtail Fern (Asparagus densiflorus) is treated as an annual in our greenhouse but can be a perennial evergreen herb in warmer climates -- it can also be brought indoors and treated as a houseplant during cold, winter months. Despite its name, the foxtail fern is not a fern at all. It uses seeds to reproduce, not spores. It is a member of the Asparagus family and produces small white flowers with red berries and has beautiful bright green, fluffy stems of pine needle-like leaves.

Foxtail Fern thrives in bright, indirect light or partial shade. (Avoid direct sunlight). It enjoys nutrient-rich, evenly moist, well-drained soil. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. It enjoys an ideal temperature range of 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit.
