Foxtail Fern (Asparagus densiflorus ‘Meyersii’) Care & Tips

Foxtail Ferns are versatile perennials that add unique texture and movement to any Austin garden. In this quick guide, we cover:

  • Light: Versatile enough for full sun to full shade.
  • Water: Low water requirements once established.
  • Planting: Works beautifully in containers or directly in the ground.  They are great fillers in the landscape, focal points as well as make great border plants.
  • Winter Care: While hardy, they should be protected during a hard freeze to prevent significant dieback, which can take a long time to recover.

We hope this Foxtail Fern care & tips guide helps you grow beautiful, healthy plants in your Central Texas landscape!
