Summary
| Description | Introduced, warm season, perennial scrambling herb with succulent stems that root at nodes to form large clumps. Leaves are alternate, ovate to lanceolate, 2.5–5.5 cm long; blade has minute hairs on margins, narrowing toward base and then expanding to a broad sheath around the stem, upper margin of sheath has long hairs. Leaves are dark green and shiny above; green below. Flowerheads consist of paired, sessile cymes subtended by 2 leaf-like bracts. Flowers are few–many per cyme. Outer tepals are green or coloured; inner tepals are petaloid and white. Stamens have bearded filaments. Flowering is from spring to autumn. A native of South America, it is a weed of gardens, wasteland and bushland where it often carpets the ground preventing regeneration of other species. Plants thrive in low light levels of degraded forest but not in light levels of closed canopy forest. |
