I really like seeing these bright hot pink colors in the garden at this time of year. It's cheerful to see them, especially when the weather has been pretty lousy lately with lots of rain. I don't know how this pokeweed made its way into our garden, but I have let it continue to grow for the past two years. I love the hot pink stems. No eating though! I understand the berries can be poisonous to mammals, but not to birds.
