Another Wild Wednesday. This week, I feature the Daphne Gnidium L. – Flax-Leaved Daphne. Photographs taken in the the Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina end of July and early August.
The evergreen shrub grows between 1.5-2 metres tall. All parts of the shrub are poisonous. The flowers eventually turn to red berries in the autumn.
For more information, please refer to the links below.

Do you enjoy photographing wildflowers, bugs, birds, snakes, and other curiosities in the wild?
I decided to revisit the meme I created ‘Wild Wednesday”, where I share photographs of wild flora or fauna in my local Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina area. Why not join me, share your photo on your blog, and leave a link in the comments below.

Beautiful but poisonous! Quite a combination.

Yep, especially when you add the red berries to the mix. I’m yet to photograph the berries.

Oh dear, poisonous, now I’m glad I’m this far away. You might use the chemist trick of wafting the air near it toward you to capture the scent safely.
