      Yes, Phytolacca :thumbsup:

      I've just popped out into the garden and taken a photo of a couple of ours (too hot out there at the moment!).

            I tried this from bought seed a few years ago, failed completely. Just so happens I was driving into a car park when I saw this with full, dark ribena coloured berries on multiple stems. For once, I had no secateurs with me, so had to saw the stem with my thumb nail!
            I mentioned ribena coloured, that was the colour of my hands afterwards......worse than fatsia!
