Asparagus ferns have airy and delicate bright green frond-like stems. The stems become woody and spined as they mature. The insignificant but sweet smelling flowers can bloom from spring to fall with proper care. They’re not actually ferns, but members of the lily family, and originate from the humid forests of southern Africa. They make great houseplants.
