Pokeweed



Pokeweed (Phytolacca americana) is just now starting to come up out of the ground. Here is a pokeweed plant you can find just west of the pedestrian bridge. The first picture was taken April 12, 2009. You can see last year's dead stems, about four feet high. Look down at the bottom and find the sprouts, shown in the second picture taken yesterday April 28, 2009.
