Foxtail Fern

The Foxtail Fern, scientifically known as Asparagus densiflorus 'Myers,' is a distinctive and ornamental evergreen perennial. Despite its name, it's not a true fern but rather a member of the asparagus family. This plant features dense, fluffy, upright stems that resemble foxtails, hence its name. It prefers partial to full shade and well-drained soil, thriving in various conditions. With a height range of 1 to 3 feet and a spread of 2 to 4 feet, it's commonly used in hanging baskets, containers, or as a ground cover, adding lushness and texture to gardens or indoor spaces.
