Asparagus Fern
Asparagus densiflorus
A perennial groundcover plant with sprawling wiry stems
to 2 metres long arising from underground rhizomes.
The small flat needle-like leaves are arranged in clusters
of 2-5, 15-25mm long by 2-3mm wide. Small spines may
be present in the leaf axils. Tiny (3-4mm long) white
to pinkish flowers are followed by bright red berries
5-8mm across. It can cover the ground, smothering other
plants and competing for soil moisture with its dense
root mat.
It is considered a noxious weed, and is difficult to
eradicate.
