Ceratocapnos

Ceratocapnos is a climbing herbaceous plant known for its delicate, fern-like foliage and distinct, curved seed pods resembling small hooks. The climbing nature of ceratocapnos allows it to thrive in shaded woodland areas by ascending on the supports provided by other vegetation. This adaptation not only aids in receiving adequate light but also contributes to its spread over a wide area.
