Can anyone identify these plants?
« on: September 19, 2020, 12:32:36 PM »
Was cutting back a shrub I have and found these two plants growing. Assuming they are some sort of weeds I’m going to remove but just in case wanted to ask first.


I popped one of those little berries and it really stains. Like a dye.

The other plant didn’t have flowers or anything.

Almost looks like a Brazilian pepper tree but hard to tell for sure

Definitely not Brazilian Pepper.  Leaf is wrong and berries are red.

Leaves still look wrong.  The Brazilian Pepper leaf has a prominent yellow vein and nit shiny glossy as those leaves appear.

Could always put gloves on (in case it is and one is allergic) and crinkle the leaves.  If you have allergies or asthma, sont breathe it in.

Thank you that’s definitely it. Guess it’s sort of invasive here. Interesting read that it once was used to make ink. Makes sense.
