  12. @mchesner if you’re talking about the purple berries in the photo - that’s from a plant called Poke Weed. I’m inundated here in #danbury with it. The birds love it! But it’s super toxic for mammals. While pretty, the berries will also stain. Removing the stalks can cause a bad rash so cover up if you are doing it.
