Rubus ulmifolius subsp. sanctus, commonly called holy bramble,[4] is a bramble native to parts of Asia and Europe.[2]

This plant is very long-lived. An instance of it can be found at the Chapel of the Burning Bush on Mount Sinai, where it is revered as the original burning bush of the Bible. This longevity and location lead to its Latin name.[5][6]
