Foxtail Fern (Asparagus densiflorus 'Myers') is an eye‑catching, textural perennial known for its upright, plume-like stems lined with soft, needle-like foliage. This semi‑evergreen variety produces clusters of ornamental red berries in fall and thrives equally well in garden beds, borders, or decorative containers. Well‑suited to mild climates and adaptable as an indoor plant in colder regions, it flourishes in evenly moist, enriched soil with protection from harsh afternoon sun. Its whimsical form, drought tolerance once established, and easy‑care nature make it a standout selection for both indoor and outdoor landscapes.
