Another plant seen growing in huge bushes along fencerows and other uncultivated areas. I don't know if anyone grows this on purpose. The ones near me are over 10 feet tall. These blossoms quickly turn to reddish berries. The plants last well into the fall, still holding on to their red leaves when most of the other trees and shrubs are bare.
