Bryonia

Bryonia alba

Bryonia dioica is the sole native representative of the cucumber family in Britain. This herbaceous climbing plant features tendrils and exhibits sexual dimorphism, with distinct male and female specimens. Its foliage consists of entire, palmately five-lobed leaves. From May to August, greenish-white flowers appear in clusters at the leaf axils, leading to the development of elongated clusters of berries that ripen to a red hue in the autumn.
