Lace Fern
Asparagus Setaceus
7
Air Purifying
Easy Care
A fluffy abundant fern!
The Asparagus Setaceus is always referred to as a fern but it is actually a member of the Lily family.
The Lace Fern comes from South Africa, they have long, wiry stems with super fine ferns, like lace thread. As it matures it loses its early bushy look and throws out tendrils that give it the potential to climb. It may even sprout flowers in late summer which turn into purple berries.
Growing pot size: 12 cm
Overall plant height including growing pot: 25-30 cm
Pets: Not considered toxic, but it can grow little berries that are inedible, best kept away from pets and children.

The Lace Fern Story
Also known as common asparagus fern, asparagus grass, climbing asparagus, or ferny asparagus
Where is it from?
Native to South Africa. Some say that they were brought to Europe in the 1600s. They then became popular in greenhouses and conservatories of the European elite.
Is The Lace Fern The Right Plant For Me?
Not a plant that you see often as a houseplant. When its delicate feathery foliage grows big enough, it resembles a canopy.
If you give it frequent watering, a moist warm place, and indirect sunlight, this plant will thrive in your home!
How tall does it grow? It is fast-growing and easy to care for and can reach a height of 2.5m unless pruned.
Fact: Although I'm always referred to as a fern (because of my appearance) I am actually a member of the Lily family.
A delicate plant that will add extra elegance to your home! Get yours now!
Care Instructions
Light
I grow best in bright, indirect sunlight - don't let my leaves get scorched.
Water
Keep me fairly moist but definitely don't let me sit in water as this can cause my roots to rot.
Temperature
Keep me warm and away from draughts please!
Feeding
Give me some weak fertiliser a few times during the growing season, I won't need as much in winter.
Toxicity
Good news: I am pet-safe!
Grooming
If my ferns are looking a bit straggly, you may want to give me a trim. Please use sharp shears and don't rip me.
Care
As I'm a fast grower, I may need repotting sooner than your other plants. Check to see if I'm rootbound in Spring.
