Several varieties belong to the genus Asparagus of the Asparagaceae or Liliaceae family, the best known being Asparagus sprengeri commonly called Asparagina, an evergreen perennial species native to Europe, Asia and Africa.
Asparagine is a bushy plant with a rhizome (reserve organ of the plant) that generates fleshy roots and shoots (characteristic shoots) of a more or less intense green colour.

Exposure: prefers bright, well-ventilated places; does not like direct sun and minimum temperatures below 7°C.
