Its a bit like asparagus fern.

That was my thought too.

and mine. could even be asparagus.

is that a good thing or a bad thing? cant seem to find much on them.

Well if it is asparagus itself once it has grown to a decent size you will be able to eat it, if it is the fern it will simply look pretty in the garden.

I have these in my garden , they start off as what looks like asparagus then grow into a large fern (reminds me of the fern they used to put with buttonholes for weddings ) they end up with red berries after the tiny white flowers.

That is the asparagus fern Nanjo.

Great, thank you for the feedback. Looking forward to see what else crops up in the new garden.

That is the joy of a new garden discovering what is in it... I would suggest you go through a whole year to see exactly what is in the ground before you do anything. We were lucky garden was 98% grass so we had a blank canvas to play with.

I was told by my elderly neighbour when I moved into my bungalow that it was 'Sparra Grass '.....It took a few years until I actually saw the plant before it grew into the fern and I had to laugh when I realised what it was. Bless him :-)
