Asparagus densiflorus 'Myers', commonly known as Myer's asparagus fern, is a compact and slow-growing variety of asparagus fern that is prized for its delicate, fern-like foliage. The plant is native to South Africa and is hardy in USDA zones 9b to 11. It can also be grown indoors in a bright, sunny location.
Myers' asparagus fern grows to a height of 1 to 2 feet and spreads to a width of 2 to 3 feet. The stems are slender and upright, with small, needle-like leaves that are arranged in clusters of three. The leaves are green in color, but they can also be variegated with white or yellow. In the spring, the plant produces small, white flowers that are followed by bright red berries. . 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.
