Rubus geoides is a South American species of flowering plant in the rose family. It is a very small, spineless, trailing herb rarely more than 10 centimetres (4 in) tall, with trifoliate leaves.[2]
It has been found only in southern South America, in the provinces of Tierra del Fuego, Santa Cruz, Río Negro, and Neuquén in Argentina,[3] the adjacent Magallanes Region of Chile, and the Falkland Islands.[4][5][6]
