    This plant grew out of a perennial bush that I purchased locally. Unfortunately, we have no idea what it is.

    It has grown to over 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide. When the green seedlings/berries ripen they turn purple and the birds seem to love them.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Hi, search these forums (upper green bar) for Phytolacca.

    If you dry your clothes on a line outside, Get rid of it asap. The common name over this way is inkweed for the very reason
