Senecio angulatus
TaxID: 189229
Basic Information
Senecio angulatus
Cape Ivy, Cape-ivy
Senecio angulatus, also known as creeping groundsel and Cape ivy, is a succulent flowering plant in the family Asteraceae that is native to South Africa. Cape ivy is a scrambling herb that can become an aggressive weed once established, making it an invasive species. It is grown as an ornamental plant for its satiny foliage and sweet-scented flowers. It is a problem weed in New Zealand, and is naturalised in parts of North Africa and Southern Europe. In Australia, Senecio tamoides is sometimes misapplied and is considered to be Senecio angulatus. Although it resembles S. tamoides, Open Tree of Life indicates that it is most closely related to species in the genus Curio, such as Curio articulatus, followed by Delairea odorata. Other common names include climbing groundsel, angled senecio, Algerian senecio, Jordanian senecio and scrambling groundsel.
