It can be used as a groundcover, in hanging baskets, or as an accent plant. The plant is also deer-resistant and can be used in areas where deer are a problem.
If you are looking for a low-maintenance, air-purifying plant that is also beautiful to look at, Myers' asparagus fern is a great option. This versatile plant can be grown indoors or outdoors and can add a touch of elegance to any space.
