Origin
The Asparagus umbellatus Myriocladus, also known as the Ornamental Asparagus, originates from South Africa. The Asparagus genus knows more than 200 species worldwide. This particular species is known for its decorative characteristics, which has led to it often being grown for use in bouquets.

Characteristics
The Asparagus umbellatus Myriocladus is characterised by its fine, needle-like foliage and small white flowers. The plant is evergreen, which means it stays green all year round. The white flowers generally appear in late spring or early summer. The plant grows rapidly and can reach a height of up to two metres.

Care
When caring for the Asparagus umbellatus Myriocladus, it is important to know that the plant likes some sun, but not harsh midday sun. The plant needs moist but well-draining soil to grow well. In winter, the plant forms berries, these do not pose a threat to the plant and do not need to be removed. Fertilise once a month with a general houseplant food to strengthen the plant's growth. Furthermore, it's essential to bear in mind that overwatering can lead to root rot.
