What does it mean when asparagus fern blooms? How many roots should I grow?

1. What does the blossoming of flowers mean?

Asparagus fern is an ornamental foliage plant that rarely blooms. If the cultivated asparagus fern blooms, it is a good sign and will bring good luck to people. It has the meaning of peace and auspiciousness, and it also symbolizes eternity and the eternal heart between friends, so many people raise it.

Although it is rare for it to bloom, flowering is a normal growth phenomenon. If it is properly maintained and the climate is suitable, it will not only bloom but also produce seeds. Its flowering period is in autumn, and it usually blooms in September or October after 4-5 years of maintenance. The flowers of asparagus fern are very small and do not have the same fragrance as other flowers.

2. How many roots are best to grow?

It is actually best not to divide the roots when growing asparagus fern. Generally, it is enough as long as it looks beautiful during cultivation. There is no other reason. When growing asparagus fern, if the maintenance is not proper, the branches and leaves will grow very sparse, and the leaves may turn yellow and dry.

3. Maintenance methods

When caring for asparagus fern, it should be kept in a warm and humid environment. The temperature suitable for plant growth is 15-25℃. When the temperature is high, heat dissipation and cooling should be carried out. It is not drought-tolerant, but it should not be watered too much under normal circumstances, because its roots are prone to black rot in water. The maintenance environment should have diffuse light but not strong light, so in the summer, it needs to be placed under the shade of a tree or covered with a sunshade.
