    Asparagus Fern, Plumosa Fern
    Asparagus setaceus

    Over 30 yo Asparagus Fern, saved from the trash when people moved. Loves sun! Water only when plant is dry, and then over water. Divides well. I've got 2 cats, and neither has been poisoned by it. 4 feet across in dimension after dividing it last spring, 2003.

    This one is a 8 to 10 yr. old, and has died back very many times; as you can tell by the original container it is in. Check out the root ball mess; It's popping the container out! I'm really afraid to touch the roots; they're humungous. My boyfriend had let it get this way over the years, but I'm really the one who takes care of it. Talk about a plant with an attitude, it doesn't like to move; that's why it dies back.
