A pop of colour in the garden !

Another bright and sunny morning - none of the downpours some of you have encountered in the UK here yet !


One or two jobs around the place this morning - then a hosp app. for hopefully a new CPAP mask which I wear at night to help rectify my Sleep Apnoea . before I go away to N Wales at the end of the week !

Info generated by the interest shown by @paul10
Plant -Italian arum , relative to the woodland cuckoo-pint or lord and ladies but this garden variety has deep cream veins on its spear-like leaves possibly named Italian arum as the leaves resemble veined Italian marble A very poisonous plant -- but I originally grew the plant for the attractive leaves for flower arranging .

Lovely pop and looks nice surrounded by all that green. No rain here .

[wendy frost]

These look lovely against the darker greens a real eye catcher. Only a light shower here last night .Fav

Lovely looking but are they poisonous?

[Beryl Lloyd]

@paul10 If I remember rightly -- I think they are poisonous - shall have to look them up again as even their name has escaped me at the moment !!

[Paul]

@beryl My sister told me their name this morning but it has escaped me :-/

[Paul]

@beryl Are they Lords and Ladies?

I have this plant coming up wild in my front garden. The orange berries are most attractive but as you say very poisonous I believe. We gave good seen any this year yet but my naturally dry front garden is a desert this year!
