Asparagus + Evergreen blackberry
Asparagus officinalis is a spring vegetable, a flowering perennial plant species in the genus Asparagus. It was once classified in the lily family, like its Allium cousins, onions and garlic, but the Liliaceae have been split and the onion-like plants are now in the family Amaryllidaceae and asparagus in the Asparagaceae. Asparagus officinalis is native to most of Europe, northern Africa and western Asia, and is widely cultivated as a vegetable crop.

Rubus laciniatus, commonly called evergreen blackberry or cutleaf blackberry, is a species of blackberry that is native to Eurasia. It has been introduced to Australia and North America, and become a weed and highly invasive species in forested habitats in the United States and Canada, it is very difficult to control. Evergreen blackberry is a deciduous shrub that grows up to 3 meters tall with prickly shoots. The flowers are in clusters, the petals are pink or white. The fruits are shiny and black, similar to the common blackberry, with a unique and fruitier taste. The fruits are not true berries in the botanical sense. [Wikipedia]
