Muehlenbeckia adpressa, commonly known as climbing lignum, is a prostrate or climbing plant, native to Australia .[5] It has thin red-brown stems up to 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) in length. The leaves are 1.5–6 centimetres (0.59–2.36 in) long and 1.5–3.5 centimetres (0.59–1.38 in) wide. It occurs in coastal areas of Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales.[5]

Taxonomy

The species was first described in 1805 by Jacques Labillardière, as Polygonum adpressum.[2][6] It was transferred to the genus Muehlenbeckia in 1843 by Carl Meissner.[7][3] Some sources, including Plants of the World Online, regard M. adpressa as a synonym of M. australis.[8] Others treat them as separate species.[9]
