History of Asparagus densiflorus Meyeri
Asparagus densiflorus 'Meyeri', also known as foxtail fern or foxtail asparagus, is a particularly decorative plant from the asparagus family (Asparagaceae). The species originally comes from South Africa and develops numerous shoots densely covered with fine, needle-like cladodes that are reminiscent of a fluffy fox's tail. Unlike the finely branched Asparagus setaceus, 'Meyeri' grows rather compact and upright, making it ideal as a decorative houseplant. With good care, it forms a dense, lush clump over time. However, pet owners should be careful, as the berries and plant parts in particular can be poisonous to cats and dogs if eaten.
Care as a houseplant:
- Light: Bright to partially shaded with indirect light. A little morning or evening sun is well tolerated, but intense midday sun should be avoided.
- Temperature: Around 18–25 °C is ideal. In winter the plant can be kept a little cooler, but preferably not below 12–15 °C.
- Humidity: Normal indoor air is usually well tolerated. However, slightly higher humidity supports strong and attractive growth.
- Substrate: Use a loose, humus-rich and free-draining houseplant substrate. Be sure to avoid waterlogging.
- Watering: Water evenly but moderately. The top layer of soil may dry out slightly between waterings. However, the root ball should not dry out completely.
- Feeding: During the growing season from spring to autumn, feed about every 2–4 weeks with a foliage plant fertiliser. Feed much less in winter.
- Special features: The compact, foxtail-like growth makes 'Meyeri' particularly attractive. Older or damaged shoots can easily be cut back. The plant has underground storage roots, so it can cope well with somewhat drier conditions for a while.
- Important for pet owners: Asparagus densiflorus 'Meyeri' is not suitable as a plant for cats and dogs to nibble on. The bright red berries in particular can cause gastrointestinal problems if eaten and should be kept away from pets.
Overwintering tips:
Asparagus densiflorus 'Meyeri' can be grown indoors all year round. In winter it should be kept in as bright a spot as possible and watered a little less. A slightly cooler position is also possible as long as the plant remains protected from frost. Dry heating air should be avoided where possible.
