Everything about Asparagus Asparagoides totally explained
Asparagus asparagoides (
African asparagus fern,
Bridal creeper,
Bridal-veil creeper,
Gnarboola,
Smilax,
Smilax asparagus) is a
plant native from
Southern Africa in the
Asparagaceae family. It sometimes grown as an
ornamental plant. It is a major weed species in southern
Australia. It was introduced to Australia from
South Africa around 1857, for use as a foliage plant, especially in bridal bouquets (hence the common name). It has escaped into the bush and smothers the native vegetation with the thick foliage and thick underground mat of
tubers which restrict root growth of oher species. It is recognised as one of the 20 "weeds of national significance". The seeds are readily spread in the droppings of birds, rabbits and foxes, as well as the plant extending its root system.
CSIRO have introduced several biological controls in an attempt to reduce the spread and impact of the weed.
