OK, I'm puzzled ...

For many years I've been growing in containers what always thought was Asparagus Fern. Nice plant. I'd like to propagate it, and the way one does so, I understand, is either by separating and digging up a tuber or planting seeds. The seeds allegedly come from small ( ~1/4 inch) red seed pods that the plant produces. But I've never seen such pods on my plants. Instead, after the tiny flowers form, I get what appear to be much smaller (~1mm) beige seed pods. See right in the middle of the attached picture.



So, um, are those really seed pods, and is this really Asparagus Fern?
