Overview
Asparagus setaceus, commonly known as Asparagus Fern or Lace Fern, is a graceful indoor plant grown for its fine, feathery foliage and airy appearance. Despite its common name, it is not a true fern, but its delicate, lace-like stems bring the same soft texture and lush greenery to interior spaces.
Its elegant arching habit makes it an excellent choice for shelves, plant stands or decorative containers, where its finely divided foliage can be fully appreciated. It complements both contemporary and traditional interiors, adding lightness and natural texture throughout the year.

Indoor Growing Guide
Position in bright, indirect light for the healthiest growth, although it will tolerate lighter shade. Keep the compost evenly moist without allowing it to become waterlogged. Higher humidity helps maintain lush foliage, making this plant well suited to naturally humid rooms or areas where humidity is increased.
Feed occasionally during the growing season with a balanced houseplant fertiliser. Trim back any yellowing or damaged stems to keep the plant looking fresh.
Why We Love It
The delicate, fern-like foliage creates a soft, elegant effect that contrasts beautifully with plants that have larger leaves. Its graceful habit makes it an excellent choice for adding texture and movement to indoor plant collections.
Indoor Placement
Ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, home offices and naturally lit bathrooms with good humidity. Avoid prolonged direct midday sun and keep away from cold draughts and heat sources such as radiators.
Good to Know
Although often called an Asparagus Fern, this plant belongs to the asparagus family and is not a true fern. Mature plants may develop small thorns on older stems, so handle with care when repotting or pruning.
