Asparagus densiflorus ‘Myers’ is an evergreen, perennial known for its green, upright, plume-like stems that radiate from the center. Despite its name and appearance, it is a member of the asparagus family and not a true fern. Uses include borders, groundcover, rock gardens, containers, and mass plantings. It thrives in full sun to partial shade; in hot desert climates, it prefers light shade. Moderate to low water needs; once established, it is highly drought tolerant due to water-storing tubers. It is adaptable to most well-drained soils, including poor or slightly alkaline soils. Salt-tolerant. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Fire-resistant. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Cold hardy to 20°F.
