    Hi, can anyone help me here. I have what i think is a weed growing in a part of my garden and it seems to be popping up in a few places?
    Is it dangerous for cattle if it spreads or can i just spray it? Dont know where it came from unless it came in a shrub pot. See attached photo. Any advice/knowledge would be very grateful.

    Can you link to a picture rather than a PDF that has to be saved to read?

    I didn't know it was poisonous, will bear that in mind. It's all over the place this way

    Also known as Arum lily, has very pretty - and tempting - berries.

    Thanks everyone for your help.
    Is it poisonous to livestock?
    I have little people who are a bit adventurous so i want it gone.!
    What are my options to get rid of it?

    should i dig it up and destroy it? or spray the area with roundup or dockstar or some other product:confused:?
