As a variety of asparagus fern, bridal creeper germinate with relative ease, and grow quickly into beautiful lush plants that thrive indoors and outdoors. With these beginner-friendly seeds, you can cultivate beautiful, fast-growing, trailing plants right in your own home.
Warning! Bridal creeper should only be planted in containers, they grow so quickly outdoors that they are considered invasive in some areas, and for that reason are best kept indoors or closely monitored in containers outdoors.
Instructions:
Asparagus ferns are easy plants to start from seed and to keep! Sow in very moist soil, cover with a humidity dome, keep warm(ideally >70F) and out of direct sunlight. Once in their setup, leave them for ~1 month and you will see little sprouts!
Bridal Creeper in particular is very fast-growing, and for that reason it's recommended not to grow outside in the ground because it's considered an invasive species.

Customer Reviews
I ordered a few different plant seeds and they all did great except for the Bridal Creeper (those three empty starter pots) . About 90% of the seeds germinated with the exception of the Bridal Creeper. I followed the directions just like the other products, but none of the seeds in the humidity dome or starter pellets with heat mat germinated. Maybe I had a bad batch or something.
I have a few more that are still sprouting, too. This photo was taken two months after planting the seeds.
Great packaging and instructions! My plant has grown so fast and healthy!
Fast shipping. Quality seeds. I am enjoying watching them grow.
