not sure of the name but it grows in my back yard in KY. it is invasive ! the birds eat the reddish purple berries when it matures and they get drunk from them. no kidding
Not sure what it's called, but it's definitely a weed.
It's Poke weed, and toxic and invasive and very hard to get rid of. In the south it is boiled, three times over and eaten as a green. It has a very long root, so you will have to dig it out if you want it gone, or just lop it off and allow it to die this winter, just cut those seeds off and dispose of them where they can't grow.
Your plant is poke. Actually, I encourage it to grow in our garden, for the young leaves are a delicious (for those who like spinach) cooked green. I also can it for winter use. The young stalk can be sliced and fried like okra.
If you insist on getting rid of it, chop off the stalks as close to the ground as possible, and apply Tordon RTU, a product available at most garden stores, Home Depot or Lowe's. Tordon isn't a spray, you just dab it on the freshly cut stalk, and you won't have to deal with that plant ever again!
l like to know what it is l love plants
Be advised the leaves and stalks must be cooked to be edible.
