Ok Josephine, You convinced me to keep it. It came up in a planter so I will just transplant it. Have to go find a picture of it. Thanks everyone.

Thank you that is beautiful. I am going to enjoy it like I do my poke weed. It is really beautiful too.

ILJ, you can make wine or jelly and jam with the berries but watch out for webworms. They love it too. I wash them out with the hose set on strong spray.
