    I've never seen anything like these. Master gardener needs help identifying. Here's what the client said:
    "The upright plant is about 18" high, later bending over to trail on ground and covered all down the stems in red berry clusters originating at the leaves. The berries are slightly sweet and tinier than raspberries. The branches are fragile - it looks a lot like Beauty Berry, but the leaves are not that shape and the berries are bright red."

    Your help is appreciated!

    Looks like either Chenopodium capitatum or C. foliosum.
