Asparagus plants are mostly used for their decorative foliage, although some species have attractive flowers and showy berries. This species looks good cascading over retaining walls and in rockeries, adding a leafy luxuriance to the planting. It will thrive in dappled shade, or in partial to full shade, and is suitable for shady gardens, as well as in containers and hanging baskets on shady patios and indoors. It can be mass planted as a ground cover. It prefers a moist, well-drained, loamy soil, and can tolerate cold temperatures to -7ºC. It is relatively drought resistant and can also take large amounts of water. Mites have been found to be the pests to watch out for when growing this species. Chemical sprays can be used to control the mites, but a more ecologically friendly approach can also be attempted, by introducing natural enemies, like ladybird beetles.

Asparagus ramossisimus is best propagated from seed. The thin fleshy coating of the fruit must be removed and the seeds sown fresh for best results. Sow in spring or summer, using a general well-drained, sterile sowing medium. Cover the seeds lightly and water well. Keep in a controlled environment that is warm and lightly shaded, and do not allow the soil to dry out. Prick out and pot up the seedlings when they are large enough to handle. Use a compost-enriched loamy medium. Grow the young plants on in light shade and keep well watered. Feed regularly for lush growth. Although established plants can also be propagated by division, it does not yield good results (Anthony Hitchcock 2015, pers. comm.)
