Woolly’s Weekend Plant Inspiration: Asparagus Fern

November 16th, 2012

Woolly’s Weekend Plant Inspiration: Plants That Woolly Love Pockets

Asparagus Ferns (Asparagus densiflorus)

Sun: These guys thrive in high light conditions, but may need to be acclimated (slowly introduced) into more light. They are ad aptable to lower light, but do not do well in deep shade (outdoors) or the lowest light (indoors).

Zone: Like most plants they like it between 55°-77°F. They can tolerate anything below or even above, but not for too long.

Soil: A well-drained potting soil will work the best!

Water: The Asparagus Fern likes humidity (needed in the winter). Let the soil dry in between watering, but don’t let it dry completely out! Even though these plants like water, they can make a pretty impressive comeback after a drought.

Culture: An evergreen herb native to South Africa and is commonly used in container plantings and widely used in hanging baskets for its showy foliage and bright red berries. Woolly pockets are perfect for this fern (or should we say vegetable).

Tip: The Asparagus Fern is actually not a fern at all (it merely resembles a fern). It is an asparagus (member of the Liliaceae family), therefore unlike other ferns; the Asparagus Fern prefers bright light and occasional dryness. This plant is also on the toxic plant list, so using caution around pets and children is advised.

Category: Thriller – Used as focal points and to create a dynamic visual composition.

*Our pictures feature a variety of the Asparagus Fern; the Foxtail Fern.

Woolly Weekend Plant Inspiration: Tulips

November 1st, 2012

Woolly’s Weekend Plant Inspiration: Plants That Woolly Love Pockets

Tulips (Tulipa species)

Sun: They need some sun! They can take full sun or partial sun.

Zone: Tulips can be grown through zones 3-8, do best in areas with dry summers and cold winters.

Soil: Tulips NEED well-drained and airy soil. Wet soil promotes fungus and disease, and can rot the bulbs. Woolly Pockets help with aeration, which keeps the bulbs from suffocating.

Water: Be sure to water through dry spells in the fall (this is when their roots are growing), otherwise do not water. When tulips are in growth be sure to water moderately.

Culture: They are one of the easiest flowers to grow successfully. They come in so many colors and varieties- I don’t even know where to start! Interesting fact: the color variation of tulips is caused by a virus- no worries to humans though. Suggestion: Google Tulip mania….

Tip: Plant your tulip bulbs in the fall for bright spring color. After they flower and you remove the heads, allow them to yellow for 6 weeks and then cut them back, and dig the bulbs up from the pockets. Keep bulbs in warm dry place until next fall, and plant again (you should have babies to plant as well). During the spring, plant your favorite annual for the summer!
