root in gravelly, rocky soils high up in Piedmont
plains, at 1,300–1,400 meters elevation. It was
botanically described in 1799.Because of its multiple uses, the demand for Asparagus racemosus is constantly on the rise. Because of
destructive harvesting, combined with habitat destruction, and deforestation,
the plant is now considered "endangered" in its natural habitat.
