I HAVE A FOUR OF THESE AVAILABLE.

NO HOLDS - SADLY, I HAVE LEARNED THE HARD WAY.

Ming Asparagus Fern is a houseplant in our area but can summer outside. It looks almost like a clump of pine trees. It DOES bite, though, with sharp spines at the base of its branches. It can be a bit floppy, so I stake my larger stalks. I also cut the tops from new stalks to control height.

More information about this plant here: https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?taxonid=282184&isprofile=0&pt=8

1st pic is a close-up of its foliage. 2nd pic is one of the ones I have available and 3rd pic is developing foliage on new stems coming up.

Located near Susquehanna Township Middle School (Union Deposit Rd and Progress Avenue area).
