This distinctive and captivating fern, known as the 'Myerii' Foxtail Fern, exudes a unique charm. Despite its name, it's not a true fern but rather a fascinating member of the asparagus family. The fronds, resembling bushy and tubular structures, boast an abundance of bright green, needle-like leaves that radiate in all directions from a dense crown. These fronds elegantly weave through neighboring plants in container arrangements, yet they also stand out beautifully when planted individually in containers or landscapes. Amidst the pointy leaves, occasional tiny white flowers make a delightful appearance, accompanied by subtle spines.

With its deer and rabbit-resistant nature, this tender evergreen fern can brave winter in the warmest climates, although it's commonly cherished as an annual for container plantings. Embrace the personality and allure of the 'Myerii' Foxtail Fern in your garden or container landscapes.

  • Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
  • Never allow potting mix to dry out completely. This can rapidly cause many brown edges. Water as soon as the surface of the potting mix feels mostly dry.
  • Use a well-drained potting mix. Adding some perlite will be beneficial and improve drainage.
