Lace Fern
Asparagus Setaceus
A Graceful Addition to Your Indoor Jungle
If you're seeking an elegant and easy-to-care-for houseplant, the Lace Fern-also known as Asparagus setaceus-might just be your perfect match. With its cascading, lace-like foliage and delicate tendrils, this plant brings a soft, ethereal beauty to any space.
Distinct Appearance That Evolves Over Time
When young, the Lace Fern has a fluffy, bushy appearance. As it matures, however, it transforms-developing long, wiry stems and fine, feathery foliage that trail or climb with grace. Over time, it takes on the look of a lush green canopy, adding dimension and depth to your plant collection.
In late summer, mature plants may surprise you with small, fragrant white flowers that eventually give way to purple berries, adding seasonal interest and texture.
Fast-Growing and Low Maintenance
Ideal for plant lovers of all levels, the Lace Fern is both fast-growing and resilient. With minimal effort, it can reach heights of up to 2.5 meters indoors-unless trimmed to maintain a compact look. It thrives in indirect light and only needs moderate watering, making it a low-stress plant that rewards you with impressive growth.
A Natural Air Purifier
Beyond its aesthetic charm, this plant is a functional superstar. Lace Ferns are highly effective at filtering toxins from the air, making them a great natural air purifier for your home or office. Their presence can enhance indoor air quality, creating a healthier and more breathable space.
Well-Being Boost in Every Leaf
Science supports what many plant parents already know: being around greenery improves mental well-being. Studies suggest that houseplants can reduce stress, anxiety, and even lower blood pressure. The Lace Fern, with its soft texture and vibrant green hues, fosters a sense of calm, optimism, and happiness in your daily environment.
Not Your Average Fern
Despite its common name, the Lace Fern is not a true fern-it actually belongs to the Lily family. Its delicate, fern-like foliage may have fooled you, but its growth habits and resilience set it apart from traditional ferns.
It's also known by a variety of charming names, including:
-
Asparagus Grass
-
Climbing Asparagus
-
Ferny Asparagus
-
Common Asparagus Fern

- Fast-growing and easy to maintain
