Flowers of Bryonia dioica C016 / 8754
Flowers of White Bryony, Bryonia dioicia. White bryony is a climbing plant with a large perennial taproot, native to Central and Southern Europe and the UK. Each Spring it develops long stems that scramble up through hedgerow shrubs by the use of tendrils. In Autumn, the plant produces small red fruits which if eaten cause symptoms of mild poisoning, including vomiting and stomach pains. More serious poisoning leading to death has been known to occur in cattle that have eaten the root following its exposure after excavation works. Active substances in the root include a glycoside ( bryonin ) and the alkaloid bryonicine, although little is known about their mode of action. Tincture of white Bryony root is widely offered as a homeopathic remedy to treat a variety of symptoms

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate and enchanting Flowers of Bryonia dioica C016 / 8754, also known as White Bryony. Native to Central and Southern Europe, as well as the UK, this climbing plant boasts a large perennial taproot that anchors it firmly in the ground. During Springtime, long stems emerge from the earth and gracefully ascend through hedgerow shrubs with the help of their tendrils. However, one must exercise caution when encountering this alluring plant. In Autumn, it produces small red fruits that may appear tempting but can cause mild poisoning if consumed. Symptoms include vomiting and stomach pains. Interestingly, excavations can inadvertently expose its root, posing a danger to unsuspecting cattle who might consume it unknowingly. In some cases, serious poisoning has resulted in death among these animals. The root of White Bryony contains active substances such as bryonin (a glycoside) and bryonicine (an alkaloid), although their mode of action remains largely unknown. Despite its poisonous nature, tincture made from White Bryony's root is widely utilized in homeopathic remedies for various symptoms. In this stunning image captured by Dr Jeremy Burgess from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of nature's beauty while being cautioned about its potential dangers lurking beneath its surface.
