Can you help please?

Hi,

I have seen today that i seem to have red berries growing on what we believed to be a fuchsia plant. Are they meant to be there and if so what do i do with them?

Thank you

Tasha

    one of the "nightshades" methinks, don't go eating it to find out though.

    Devon.
  • Oh yeah, just googled it and looks like it might be. That will be leaving my garden pretty sharpish I think.

    That's trailing one I think, Solanum dulcamara.  Definitely a nightshade.

    yeah, but you came up with a fancy name for it.

    I've never bothered to learn the " fancy names " for weeds, just the ability to ID them as such and remove. 

    There's not much room left in the old head these days.

    Same here in the head, if anything new turns up something old has to go.

    But the plants are fixed (so far)

    I met our new neigbours earlier as they passed the end of our drive. By the time they'd driven off I'd already forgotten their names.
