- Asparagus Sprengeri is a popular evergreen plant with long, feathery, trailing shoots. Perfect for interior and garden decoration. Prefers bright spots and moderate watering, adding natural lightness to any space.
Asparagus Sprengeri, also known as Sprenger's asparagus, is an impressive plant with long, feathery, trailing shoots that form dense, fluffy clumps. It grows 60–90 cm tall, with evergreen foliage that adds charm year-round. Often mistaken for a fern, it belongs to the asparagus family.
The plant prefers bright or partially shaded locations and well-drained, moderately moist soil with slightly acidic to neutral pH. It is quite drought tolerant but grows best with regular watering. It does not tolerate frost, so in colder climates it is best grown in pots and overwintered indoors.
