Hi forum. Can anybody tell me the name of
this plant in Hebrew?
It's colloquially known in English as Black Bryony. My gratitude would be almost beyond
comprehension if you could. Many thanks.

That is Tamus orientalis, which makes sense since מזרחי means eastern or oriental.

The flower you are looking for is טמוס מצוי. The word מצוי means common or commonplace.

Tamus communis (טמוס מצוי)
