How to grow asparagus fern in winter

1. Ensure the environment is warm

When growing asparagus fern in winter, the most important task is to keep it warm. Asparagus fern is not very cold-resistant. If the temperature is very low in winter, it will easily cause yellow leaves. Before winter comes, around October, you should consider the issue of keeping warm. If the temperature is below 15℃, move it to a warmer place and keep the temperature around it above 15℃ to prevent it from freezing.

2. Provide good lighting and ventilation conditions

In winter, the sunlight is relatively weak. At this time, it is recommended to place it in a place where it can be exposed to sunlight so that it can receive more light. This helps to increase the temperature around it and allows it to use sunlight to synthesize more nutrients, which is very beneficial for it to survive the winter. In addition, when there is no cold wind, it is recommended to open the window for ventilation so that it can be exposed to fresh air. This is also good for it to overwinter.

3. Properly control the frequency of watering and fertilizing

When growing asparagus fern in winter, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to, which is to control the frequency of watering and fertilizing. At this time, due to the low temperature, its growth rate will be slower. Slow growth will result in lower water and fertilizer requirements. Therefore, the frequency of watering and fertilizing needs to be properly controlled at this time. Generally speaking, watering can be changed to once every 10-15 days, and fertilizing can be changed to once every 1-2 months. If the temperature is relatively low, you can stop fertilizing.
