☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

The Asparagus Fern flourishes in medium light but will also tolerate low light conditions. Ideally, place it in a spot where it receives filtered sunlight, avoiding direct harsh rays to prevent leaf burn.

? Water

??▫️ (Medium)

Water your Asparagus Fern when the top inch of soil feels dry. They enjoy consistent moisture but be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. During winter, reduce watering slightly.

?️ Temperature

?️?️▫️ (Average)

This plant prefers average room temperatures of 18°C to 24°C. Avoid sudden temperature drops and cold drafts which can stress the plant.

? Humidity

??? (High)

Asparagus Fern thrives in high humidity environments, making it perfect for kitchens and bathrooms. If the air in your home is dry, consider using a humidifier or placing a water tray nearby to increase the moisture in the air.

? Repotting

Repot your Asparagus Fern every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to ensure healthy growth. This is also a great time to divide the plant if it has become too large.

? Pet Friendliness

Be cautious as the Asparagus Fern is toxic to pets. Keep it out of reach of curious cats and dogs to prevent any accidental ingestion.

? Recommended locations at home

This plant is a versatile addition to any room with medium to high humidity. It’s particularly well-suited for bathrooms and kitchens where the humidity is naturally higher. Darker corners of a bright living room or an office space can also be ideal.

? Air Purifying

The Asparagus Fern is known for its air-purifying qualities, making it a beneficial and beautiful addition to your indoor space.

✨ Other Plant Features

Despite its name, the Asparagus Fern is technically not a fern. Its carefree growth pattern and fluffy, feather-like foliage make it a popular choice for both terrariums and as a stand-alone plant.

Authentic Photos of Our Plants: We take every photo you see, showcasing the actual plants we offer. Each plant is selected randomly unless otherwise stated, adding a touch of surprise to your order.

Natural Variations Make Each Plant Unique: No two plants are the same. Differences in size, leaf count, and minor cosmetic imperfections are part of their charm and individuality, making your plant truly one of a kind.

Healthy Plants, Always: While we can’t guarantee an exact match to the photos, we promise to send only happy, healthy plants that are well-cared for and ready to thrive in your space.

Let Your Plant Settle: Allow your new plant to adjust to its surroundings for 1–2 weeks before repotting, propagating, or making any major changes. This settling-in period reduces stress and helps your plant flourish.

Shipped-in Trusted Potting Mix: Our plants are delivered in a standard grower’s potting mix. When you’re ready to repot, choose from our premium-quality mixes designed specifically for aroids, succulents, and terrariums, available in our shop.

Expert Guidance on Repotting: I’m unsure if it’s time to repot. Check out our article, When to Repot Your Plant, for expert advice on keeping your plant healthy and happy.

Support for Climbing Plants: For Monstera, Philodendron, and Syngonium, add one of our handmade sphagnum moss poles and a watering drip cup. These accessories encourage natural growth, support larger leaves, and keep your plants neat and upright.

Simple Care at Your Fingertips: Every plant includes plant care instructions, and you can scan the QR code on the nursery pot to access detailed guides. For additional help, our Moss Bot is available 24/7 on the website to answer your plant care questions.

Complete Your Plant Setup: Browse our selection of stylish planters, precision pruning tools, watering tools, full spectrum grow lights, eco-friendly pest treatments, organic plant food, and efficient watering accessories. Everything you need for a thriving plant collection is just a click away.
Sustainably Packed with Care: Your plant will arrive safely, packed with reused and environmentally friendly materials. While we take great care to prevent damage, some fragile plants may experience minor leaf loss during transit—but don’t worry, your healthy plants will grow back.

Excellent package and delivery. The moss is ideal for forcing my Christmas bulb gifts and the potted plant is beautiful and a welcome addition to my collection. Will be returning and adding gift cards for Highland moss to my birthday and Christmas lists. An outstanding find and highly recommend.
