Hyoscyamus niger Hullukaali Seed pods IMG_9205

This is how Henbane, Stinking Nightshade or Black Henbane (Hyoscyamus niger) will look after a snowy winter. Each seed pod contains thousands of tiny seeds which are able to sprout or germinate even after a hundred years. 118 years is found to be true.
I did not look if there were any seeds left.
This looks very intriguing to me
