What's this plant, with orange berries?

It's a solitary spike, around 8 inches tall, covered in bright orange berries. It appears, seemingly overnight, in woodland at this time of year. Thanks.

If you are in the UK it could well be an arum, commonly known as cuckoo pint or lords and ladies. I have a link with a picture of the plant that I think you are talking about

As already said, it is Lords and Ladies/Cuckoo pint. Its Latin name is Arum maculatum as it is a common arum lily.



Here's a picture search link for you:

Yes it is poisonous, but colourful.



Hope we've managed to answer your question between us.



Thanks.
Reply:that would probably be an arum lilly of some kind. Check around the base of the spoke. There are often mottled black/gree arrow shaped leaves
