That is a poke plant...while the berries are green in the photo they will eventually turn dark red/purple..do not eat the berries...they will at the very least make you sick. http://www.aces.edu/dept/extcomm/newspaper/june21b02.html

Old country folk eat the poke plant when it is young and tender, however conventional wisdom is not to eat any of the plant because all parts of it are not good for man or beast.

I had a huge stand of poke plants in my yard that no matter what I did to them they kept coming back

LOL That's understandable...

Have you ever seen a Poke Root? crazy

It gets bigger every year, and every time it's
allowed to put out foliage, it photosynthesizes
more food/energy that's stored in the perennial
root that gives the plant the energy needed to
increase in size and vigor year by year.

Even though the berries are poisonous to people
birds are immune to their toxin, and like them
very much, the same as they love to little white
berries of Poison Ivy. So much so, that they make
it a point to plant both every where they s_it.

When we entertained a member of the local Audubon
Society, during the post-lecture Q&A someone asked;
'what can we plant to attract more birds to our
yard?' the lecturer just smiled and said; "You
don't need to plant anything. If you have a clothes
line the birds will plant whatever they like." smile

It took about 5 seconds for that to Sink-In blush


What I'm saying is, that's the reason we're plagued
with the like of Poison Ivy, Poke & Mulberry that
seem to plant themselves in every inaccessible fence
line, and hedgerow on God's Green Earth mad
