Foxtail Fern
Scientific Name: Asparagus densiflorus ‘Myersii’
Foxtail Fern is a unique, ornamental evergreen perennial known for its soft, plume-like fronds that resemble bottlebrush “foxtails.” Despite its name, it is not a true fern, but it creates the same lush, airy texture that makes it highly desirable in landscapes and containers.
Its bright green, upright arching stems form dense clumps that add elegant structure and movement to garden beds, patios, and mixed plantings. In spring and summer, it may produce small white flowers followed by red berries that add seasonal interest.
Easy to grow and low maintenance, Foxtail Fern is drought tolerant once established and thrives in warm climates, making it a popular choice for borders, accent planting, and container designs.
