These gorgeous looking plants are an absolute delight to have indoors. With grass like structure and soft hanging spurs, the Asparagus Fern is quite easy to grow indoors. It grows very quickly; hence one has to take care of overgrowth.

The asparagus fern plant  is normally found in a hanging basket, decorating the deck or patio in summer and helping to clean indoor air in winter. When growing asparagus ferns outside, place them in a part sun to shady location for best foliage growth. While the asparagus fern plant may sometimes flower, the tiny white flowers are small and not necessary for the beauty of growing asparagus fern.

Temperature: Asparagus ferns like tropical and humid weather. Although, humid weather works best for these ferns; during extreme summers, it is best to keep them in a shaded area to avoid direct sun exposure.
