What does BRYONY mean in Scrabble?
noun
botany
A climbing hedgerow plant that clings with tendrils and bears clusters of red or black berries.
Bryony grows over hedges and fences in Europe, and its coiled tendrils let it scramble up other plants. Both the white and the black kinds are poisonous, and the thick root was once used in old medicine despite that danger. The spelling briony is a variant of the same plant name, though bryony is the usual form in modern botany.
