''Ruscus aculeatus'', known as butcher's-broom, is a low evergreen Eurasian shrub, with flat shoots known as cladodes that give the appearance of stiff, spine-tipped leaves. Small greenish flowers appear in spring, and are borne singly in the centre of the cladodes. The female flowers are followed by a red berry, and the seeds are bird-distributed, but the plant also spreads vegetatively by means of rhizomes. ''Ruscus aculeatus'' occurs in woodlands and hedgerows, where it is tolerant of deep shade, and also on coastal cliffs. It is also widely planted in gardens, and has spread as a garden escapee in many areas outside its native range. ==Common names== * Butcher's-Broom * Kneeholy, Knee Holly, Kneeholm * Jew's Myrtle * Sweet Broom * Pettigree * Λαγομηλιά (Lagomilia): Hare's apple ''(in greek)'' * Le Fragon: The Butcher '' (in french)'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ruscus aculeatus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
