Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Asparagus scandens, Thunb. A slender climbing vine up to 6 ft.: sts. green, branching freely above: branches with twigs and cladodes in one plane, suggesting A. filicinus somewhat: cladodes flat, long, lanceolate-falcate, 3-5 in.: fascicle ¼-½ in. long, central one longest, glabrous, light green: lf.-scale minute, base not spined: fls. pendulous, solitary or paired in axils, greenish white, ⅙ in. diam., perianth spreading, segms. elliptic-oblong: berry globose, ⅙ in. diam., red, 1-seeded. S. Afr. B.M. 7675. G.C. III. 33:339.—One of the weaker-growing kinds of ornamental asparagus, thriving well in an intermediate house. A good decorative plant when grown in strings for table decoration; also good as a pot-plant. Var. deflexus. Similar to type but with branches deflexed: cladodes stiffer and smaller: fls. smaller: seed often white. G.W. 5:446; 13:301. A. crispus is often sold under this name, but is easily distinguished by its 3-angled cladodes (see discussion under No. 5). The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
