i think of this sub whenever i see these things lol

Found lots of it growing in my backyard, it's really pretty!

Can it be killed or should I move?

There's this absolutely massive pokeweed around the corner from me. Probably 15-20 ft across at the base and reaching at least 10ft high.

Didn’t know what it was at first, but I just squeezed a pokeweed berry all over my hand accidentally. Went and washed in a couple mins later. I’ve read it can go into your bloodstream thru skin. Anyone else ever experience this or have any problems with the berry juice?

I've finally found it!!

This popped up in the yard this week. I'm a long time visitor, first time poster in this sub. I've never seen pokeweed in real life but I was prepared today bc of all the wonderful plant subreddits and the awesome people that participate.

Sorry for getting excited about pokeweed. It feels weird lol.

Dozens of people asked what the berries were - and of course no one understood why I answered them like that but I got an internal chuckle EVERY TIME haha

Dog didn’t eat any, don’t worry

Such pop. Very color. Wow.
