    They are not a kind of “fern” (Pteridophyta) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fern http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fern . Asparagus are a kind of “flowering plant” (Angiosperm) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowering_plant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowering_plant .

      You are right! I was told once asparagus is a fern and always believed it.
