Plum Asparagus Fern, a foliage plant with hairlike leaves, is commonly used in corsages. Its bi-pinnately compound composition and parallel veins give it an ornamental appearance. This plant thrives in zones 10 and 11 with part shade exposure. Stems have thorns, and the alternate arrangement adds to its visual appeal.
