Shot in my front yard. I remember buying this tree...it was barely 2 feet tall and looked like something that Charlie Brown brought home. It's grown into quite a beauty.

Aucuba japonica, originaria del Giappone, è un arbusto sempreverde, alto fino a 3 metri. Generalmente si coltivano le varietà dalle foglie variegate, brillanti, ovate e coriacee, dentate verso l'apice. I fiori, che sbocciano in marzo-aprile, sono verdastri e portati in pannocchie terminali. I frutti sono prodotti solo dalle piante femminili, sulle quali compaiono grappoli di bacche di forma ovoidale, color scarlatto molto acceso, che spesso durano fino alla primavera successiva.

From my garden. Lupins or lupines (North America) are the members of the genus Lupinus in the legume family (Fabaceae). Three Mediterranean species of lupin, Blue Lupin, White Lupin and Yellow Lupin (L. luteus) are widely cultivated for livestock and poultry feed. Both sweet and bitter lupins in feed can cause livestock poisoning. Lupin poisoning is a nervous syndrome caused by alkaloids in bitter lupins, similar to neurolathyrism. Mycotoxic lupinosis is a disease caused by lupin material that is infected with the fungus Diaporthe toxica[8]; the fungus produces mycotoxins called phomopsins, which cause liver damage. Poisonous lupin seeds cause annually the loss of many cattle and sheep on western American Ranges Wikipedia article.
