This was a very interesting type of St. Johns Wort. After the yellow flowers, seen in the background, come these very prominent fruits about 3/4" in diameter.

They look like cherries. Do they taste like cherries? Beautiful shot, Kathy.

I've seen these flowers / berries before, but wasn't sure what it was called. Excellent detail & I love the contrasting colors.

Beautiful camera work on these unusual plants. They seem like they want to pop right out of my monitor! Fantastico!

Vibrant colors, good composition, and a fine bokeh make this to a very fine image.

Kathy, I'm curious whether these Hypericum pumpkins are edible. Give it a try, but I won't pay the doctor's bill, LOL!

Love that glossy look - could well be an oil painting.

I believe these were used in olde worlde monastic herbal medicines!...

Poisonous too, I think!


But a terrific picture with excellent light and depth

I don't believe I've ever seen this plant before...it's very unusual and beautiful...3/4 inch would be the size of a cherry, I think. Very nicely presented!
