  It happens every now and then. My question is, why do you think this is the right species? Is it wild or cultivated in a garden?
  The flowers look small and round. They don't look much like other photos of this species that I found.

  There are many species, they are similar and I find it very difficult to discriminate between them. Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago

    It is difficult to distinguish them, but some signs make me believe the ones I shot are neglectum. The shape of raceme, a bit thinner stalks and leaves and smaller fruits. The shape of raceme of Botryoides is a bit shorter and rounded. In wild Armeniacum is distributed mainly south of Bulgaria. The other species are not so widespread.
