Someone gave me an Asparagus fern as a housewarming gift. That's what they said it was anyway, I don't know anything about ferns so don't personally have a clue. It's very full, but doesn't have leaves, per se. Rather it has little.........er.........spikes, I guess, all over each arm or branch or frond or whatever. Does that sound like an Asparagus fern?

Assuming it is one, how do I care for it? I currently have it inside, and it looks wonderful. I'd like to keep it inside, but I don't know anything about its light requirements, if it CAN be used as a houseplant etc.

I've searched the site, but can't find any information.

Thanks Karen,

I'm glad to know yours is doing ok inside, I really want to keep mine inside because it looks just lovely where it is. Like yours, it doesn't get direct sunlight, but is in my living room which has lots of light.

If I want to move it outside at any point during the summer, should I keep it in the shade?
