Anyone know what this plant is? It sure looked good enough to eat but we didn't.
There was a lot of it at Runestone State Park near Heavener, OK.

Like wow, man... More of a mystery about that plant than I thought. Dunnow why it didn't "take"... Here goes again...

No idea what it is, but the blooms look like razzberrys. Real pretty.

Gary, Not blooms, OM... They are berries. Blooms are long gone.

Hey Doc, I sure agree it is a beauty. Now if it only tasted as good as it looks and had no unwanted side effects.

Thanks for posting that. We've got dozens of them all over our place, along with tons of deer. I've never noticed ANY kind of animal or bird eating the berries, but the deer and grasshoppers love the leaves.
Those grew everywhere when I was a kid. I never knew what they were but I knew exactly what to do with them. Break a whole limb off below the last clump of berries, grasp the base of the limb, pick your intended target (preferably someone smaller and younger than yourself) and vigorously swing the limb in their direction. Results? You end up with an empty limb and your victim gets pummeled with purple berries! [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

We used to carefully pick seed pods from "Touch Me Not" flowers and throw them at others or the ground. They "EXPLODE" and shower ouit their seeds.
