Nicandra physalodes, or apple-of-Peru (in German simply Giftbeere, "poison berry"), by the side of the road. This inflorescence is unusually late, which is almost certainly the result of mowing in summer.

I like the flowers of this plant; it's been more than four years since I last found one in the wild.

I count flowering plants as I spot them throughout the phenological seasons, trying to learn to identify new ones every year. This is a belated # 197.
