pokeweed

I've found another Pokeweed plant growing through the fence against the divided garden. Still not seen any birds visiting for the berries, though that might be due to the presence of my cats.

My daughter just finished reading Little House in the Big Woods and when she asked me what pokeweed was (they used the berries to make dye for something) I was delighted to be able to go out and actually show her the plant growing in our yard!
