Anybody knows this plant?

Post by cyprusmax47 »

This photo I did yesterday of a plant I don't know. It could be a faded flower of the orchid family :?: But this time of the year?

Admitedly, I have only seen red fruit in the UK, but that is what it reminds me of.

Bravo Dominic, you are right, I did not know that Arum maculatum is growing in Cyprus. Poisonous plant!
Here a photo how the plant looks and also pic from the plant with the seeds showing.
