A maritime plant with characteristical fruits

Post by MWP admin »

I think this is an easy plant which I cannot figure out. I have seen the 3-pointed fruit somewhere but can't recall. Your help is appreciated.

Hi guys (and girls). Thanks for this one - I missed it while flipping Weber's book. Strange that it is known as The Devils' horn!
