Several species of the Asparagus genus are commonly known as asparagus fern—especially A. densiflorus, which is typically grown outside, and A. aethiopicus, which is typically grown as a houseplant. While different species, both are very similar plants with bright green feathery-textured foliage. Neither plant is a fern, but instead, they are warm-weather perennials closely related to the common edible garden asparagus. In zones 9 to 11, these plants are hardy outdoors, where they grow as creeping spreading plants, but it is also common for them to be grown as indoor houseplants, where they make good "thriller" specimens in mixed containers or hanging baskets. Normally planted in the spring, the fast-growing asparagus fern has a lot of good qualities, but it comes with some important cautions. In warm, humid climates, asparagus ferns can spread rapidly when planted outdoors—to the point of serious invasiveness. Check with your local extension agent to determine if it's invasive in your area. Indoors, the key to a robust asparagus fern is to keep the plant properly watered, bushy, and dense, so its lace-like foliage forms an attractive mound.
