# OK, y’all what the what is this? I had an asparagus fern for years…

_Posted by Irwin Home on 2026-08-11_

OK, y’all what the what is this? I had an asparagus fern for years that I killed and brought back and then killed and it didn’t come back the second time. It was a beloved plant, but there was no bringing it back after this past winter. The pot has just been outside gathering weeds. I recently dumped it so I could use the pot and I have never seen anything like this. Is this normal? Is this what asparagus fern looks like inside? I’ll be honest it completely freaked me out. It looks very alien.

They look like seeds

I agree, but do you think of the original asparagus fern?
