Author Garden: Plant with Berries! The Prynce Garden Helper Member # 1444 posted                       Hey, everyone! Its been a while since I've poster on here because I had some PC problems that only recently were fixed. My reason for posting again are some pictures of this plant that grows at the edge of my woods. It has nice green leaves and little red berries and it was only partially there in the summer and now it is almost the only green in that part of my woods! It's clearly able to survive cold weather, as it hasn't been too warm lately. Last night it was down to like 25 and it's still living. At any rate, here are two pictures that I took of the leaves and berries. I could have gotten a picture of the actual bush, but I did not have my camera with me so I just grabbed some leaves and berries and took a shot of it on a paper towel in my kitchen. lol. Anyone know what this is? My mom said she has seen it before but she doesn't know its name! -=The Prynce Plants: 29 | From: Dillon, SC (Prynceton) | Registered: Aug 2003  |  Seeded: 209.247.222.46 weezie13 Compost Queen!

To me, it looks like Nandina domestica, aka Heavenly Bamboo. (although it's not an actual bamboo) Here's a pic from one of mine, sorry it's blurry - The berries on mine are more red than yours, but they do start out and end as an orange like yours. It's rather invasive here in zone 8, but some people enjoy the berries and evergreen foliage for winter interest.
