Asparagus Fern

Asparagus fern is a genus of the 'Asparagaceae' family and there are over 300 species known to date. The most well known asparagus is the edible variety called Asparagus Officinalis - all other varieties are ornimental plants.

In floristry, asparagus fern is an important ingredient and is widely used in wedding flowers. There are quite a few commercially grown varieties that are specifically produced for the wholesale cut flower market - the most well known being 'asparagus setaceus', commonly known as 'button hole fern'.

In the wholesale flower markets asparagus fern is sold differently, depending on the variety. For example: Asparagus Sprengerii is sold by the weighted bunch, (normally two at a time). Asparagus Setaceus is available in two stem lengths: 45cm & 70cm and there are 50 stems per bunch. Asparagus Treefern is sold by the weighted bunch. Asparagus Umbellatus, (Ming Fern), is available in two stem lengths: 60cm & 80cm and there are 10 stems per bunch. Asparagus Smilax is sold by the weighted bunch.
