Propagating Asparagus Fern from Berries or Division

From Berries (Seeds)

Red, ripe berries contain seeds. Sow in moist potting mix; germination is erratic and slow. Only works if berries were pollinated.

Division (Fast & Reliable)

1. Remove plant from pot.
2. Cut root ball in half vertically with a sharp knife.
3. Pot each half in same-size container with fresh mix.
4. In ~6 months, both pots will be full, lush plants.

Recommendation

Division is strongly preferred — immediate results, genetic clone, no seed uncertainty.
