Asparagus sprengeri meyeri commonly called Fox Tail Fern originated in South Africa.
This evergreen is not actually a fern. It belongs to the same family as culinary asparagus.
Fox Tail Fern is bushy and green with naturally trailing stems that grow approximately 2 feet long. The fleshy roots can store water for use in the dry season.
The stems are covered with tiny needles. In the tropics tiny white flowers appear. They then develop into small green berries which turn red when ripe.
