Wild asparagus
About Wild asparagus[]
This plant is a native asparagus species and is endemic to Western Europe. Recent evidence indicates that wild asparagus is a separate species to garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis spp. officinalis) and not a subspecies as previously thought. The stems grow prostrately and have needle-like leaves, which reach 16 (exceptionally 24) mm long. The flowers are small and green, and produce bright red berries.
