Asparagus fern has become a favorite indoor plant in many families with its small shape and cloud-like leaves. However, some flower lovers may encounter problems such as yellow leaves, slow growth or dry leaves during the maintenance process. To grow asparagus fern well, you need to know how to care for and water it? 1. Choose the right flower pot and soil Asparagus fern is best grown in smaller pots to maintain its compact shape. It is important to choose a well-aerated soil that drains quickly while retaining some moisture. Half river sand can be added to the soil to improve the air permeability of the soil and meet the preference of asparagus fern for sandy soil . 2. Reasonable watering Asparagus fern likes a humid environment, but is afraid of root rot caused by excessive water. On the premise of ensuring that the soil is breathable and water-permeable, when the surface of the potting soil is dry to a depth of one or two centimeters, water it thoroughly in time to prevent the roots from drying out. 3. Lighting management Asparagus fern likes light, but cannot tolerate direct sunlight, especially in summer. It should be placed in an environment with diffuse light and receive 2-3 hours of light a day, such as mild sunlight before 9 am or after 3-4 pm, to avoid sunburn of the leaves. 4. Fertilization Asparagus fern is mainly a foliage plant, so multi-element fertilizers should be selected to ensure nutrient balance and avoid element deficiencies. Using fertilizers with high nitrogen content while ensuring that other elements are not lacking will help the leaves and branches of asparagus fern grow rapidly and reduce yellowing leaves. Fertilize 1-2 times a month to provide sufficient nutrients for asparagus fern. In short, by following these simple maintenance principles, asparagus fern will be able to maintain its green leaves and strong branches, avoiding problems with yellowing and drying leaves.
