    I have found a plant in my yard with dark green leaves, its small or medium sized. It blooms with a tiny white flower in the spring, which eventually changes to orange balls about the size of a quarter in the late summer. The plant grows to apoximately 2 ft. tall. All that i know is it is a perinnial and seems to prefer shade. I am unsure if it is wild or not. If any one has any information please contact me with suggestions of what it might be.
