Asparagus setaceus, Asparagus Fern or Feathery Asparagus is an easily cultivated perennial from southern and east Africa and adapts very well as a houseplant in the UK. Its delicate, soft, green fern-like foliage is highly attractive and combined with its ease of cultivation, has made it one of the most popular indoor plants ever.
Best in indirect light away from the hot rays of the sun, Asparagus setaceus is perfectly suited to a well-lit corner or ideal in the moist humid atmosphere of the bathroom.
