Please help identify fruiting tree/vine
Comments (4)Not only edible but very tasty! Makes a great pie and eats fresh out of hand well too! They don't keep well in the fridge so eat or use right away. While I too have read that the unripe fruit are toxic, from personal experience I suspect that is only with very unripe fruit. We tend to eat them from a dark red on to the purple-black color. But this can be an excellent teaching tool for a parent to teach plant safety, knowing positively before eating, what plants to avoid, and so on. Before my kids were allowed to pick and eat their own berries, they had to learn how to be safe, id the good as well as bad, and learned to treat what they don't know as poison.

Comments (8)I do believe that's a spiderwort of some type. Some folks grow them as flowers, some folks pull them as weeds- so you can decide if you like them and they are flowers or if you don't and they are weeds. They can get pretty rampant if they are happy, so even if you keep them as a flower you might want to keep an eye out so they don't wander all over your garden....See MoreKevin Reilly
