This does look like a Datura, like the pictures a couple of you posted for me. Thank you very much. wavey

Shirley,

I don't know what that is, the common name used sure seems to fit it laugh When I click on your "small picture" I get a big picture of it in your Webshots. wavey

Look at the pics they showed me of datura pods under 'A Mystery Name' and see what you think.
I think it kind of looks like that, don't you?

Just a thought Duh that could be a possibility??

It just doesn't seem to have the pronounced "collar"
that I'm accustomed to seeing on most Datura pods.

I also noticed that it did not have that pronounced collar.

Your picture of the Manroot looks very much like it. Now that I have a name to type in I am going to check it out on the Web. Thanks thumbup

Not sure; I think the picture I have shows the pod a little more oval and pointed, but that is before or after the flower. What do you think?
