Cleft Bramble

The Cleft Bramble, Rubus laciniatus, known also as the Cutleaf or Evergreen Blackberry, is a vigorous, thorny shrub in the family Rosaceae native to central and southeastern Europe, from the Balkans through to southwestern Asia. It is widely naturalized in western North America, southern Australia, New Zealand, and other temperate regions where it was introduced as a garden plant or for erosion control. The distinctive deeply divided, laciniate leaves with finely cut leaflets distinguish it from other brambles. Like other Rubus species, it produces edible black fruits relished by birds and mammals, making it an important food plant for wildlife, but its vigorous growth and ability to root from stem tips make it an aggressive colonizer and a serious invasive species in many regions outside its native range. In the Pacific Northwest of the United States, Rubus laciniatus forms dense, impenetrable thickets that displace native vegetation and reduce biodiversity. Control is difficult given its extensive root system and the ability of fragments to regenerate. The species is listed as a noxious weed in several US states and Australian states. In its native European range, Cleft Bramble is not threatened and occurs in woodland edges, hedgerows, and scrubby habitats.
