Asparagus setaceus coll. #A1SA-182 (Bristled Asparagus Fern)

SunZone: 7b-10, possibly colder 96" tall Origin: S. Africa

We are thrilled to offer our winter hardy selection of the popular houseplant, Asparagus setaceus. This form hails from near Cathcart in South Africa's Eastern Cape at 4,773' elevation, where it grows in dry rocky fields. For us, it has made a wonderful vigorous specimen against a board-on-board fence. A. setaceus is composed of 8' long twining stems, adorned with soft, but bristly dark green foliage and tiny white flowers in spring. In fall, the deciduous plants are covered with tiny red fruit. So far, this has been through 7 degrees F with no adverse affects. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
