Acaena novae-zelandiae is native to New Zealand and Australia. It can also be found elsewhere in the world as an introduced species and is considered a noxious weed in some areas, such as Hawaii and California. One plant can cover up to 4-5 square meters under ideal condition. Plants have a burr which is formed after flowering and is beset with barbed spines which cling to the clothing of passers-by and to animals. It’s a serious problem in the wool of sheep.
