Ah, now I understand why the locals in Ontario don’t pick what I thought were wild grapes. I’m also very glad I never had the time to pick and eat them yet. (Now I know not to.) Your video is very helpful, it’s saved me and my family from dying of Canadian Moon Seed poisoning 😅 Thank you!
Horse Nettle looks very similar to Silver Leaf Night Shade that grows wild in Texas pastures. A county agricultural agent identified it for me. Thanks for your production and information.
Very informative video on plant identification. An interesting sidenote about the coloration of certain plant stems is that they usually blush where the sun actually hits its surface. Much like an apple or a cherry.
You're welcome Jo-Anna, it really is a beautiful flower! No it's not poisonous, however it's best to avoid if pregnant as it was historically considered a contraceptive, though not many documentation exists on that. Hopefully this helps and thanks for asking!
Very informative. I've eaten wild grapes on occasion but never thought that I could be eating poisonous grapes because I did not know there was more than one type. I will be sure to inspect the leaves from now on.
Another important feature about moonseed.. Or really a lack of a feature, unlike wild grapes moonseed will NOT have tendrils. This is the easiest way to know the difference imo. But even when you find a vine with tendrils you have to trace back the stem of ANY fruit to make sure there is a tendril.
There is different types of iris like bearded iris, bearded iris has larger flowers and is used as a ornamental flower and If picked, it has a ton of sap that's poisonous so If you're giving it to someone like a girl you like, you should dry it off, but it will cause some weak skin irritation that usually lasts for a few minutes to hours or sometimes days.
I have hogs that I would like to turn loose on weed covered terrain. Are my hogs safe from these? What specifically would be toxic for hogs? I want them to be able to forage for food. It's got to be better for them than that dry stuff found in feed sacks.
Hopefully they provide some help on your journey! I would've done that if I knew all the potential symptoms for these plants at the time I made this video, I just didn't know them all then. Thanks for commenting Jessica!
The wild grape has tendrils and the wild grape seeds look like regular grape seed clusters. I'm made amazing homeade wine with them. Came out as a very grapy tasting fruity merlot 😏
Would love to see parts 3 and more of these series - these are the best I found thus far - very well explained.

You're very welcome Candykitty, I'm glad you didn't eat that! That would have been tragic. Thank you for commenting, and stay safe!

Very interesting and useful information. Thank you
You're very welcome, thanks for commenting!
Yes dude it's important to know your tatties from you onions! Thanks for the provided information.
Very helpful. Will you be doing another one later in the year with the fruit of these plants, maybe late summer or fall?
Blarrghh, horse nettle is my enemy! I have stepped on so many by mistake while barefoot. Especially last year near my garden.
Yeah that would hurt bad! Bull thistle rosettes hurt like crazy too!
I'm a bare foot person too. My grandkids call them cuss weed because if you accidentally step on one you're allowed one cuss word.
Yea I hate those.
There are many types of iris that HATE swamp lands too. 😘
Also the leaves can be eaten by boiling them or frying them.. Mom and dad told us their parents did that alot.
Are you talking about poke weed?

I really love these videos especially with becoming a botanist. I just wish you would say what happens if poisoned

Title is pretty specific... "identification".
thanks

Thank-you!!
You're welcome!
It's our state Flower - Iris
Tennessee
That's cool to know Beth, thanks for commenting!
Need to change it as a state flower. Ha ha.
There is a plant that looks just the Horsenettle but it bears green beans. We call it gully bean but I heard it is wild eggplant.
I have heard it as eggplant too.
I tripped over a dry horse nettle, and got its spines in my finger.
This are bitter ball c Africa cook it soup you can buy them at Africa market (but they larger )

Can you please tell me what that plant on your web page is they are everywhere I live in ms is this an herb
My understanding is poison ivy grows on surfaces, but poison oak is free-standing.
Poison ivy can be both. Poison oak definitely climbs.
❤️
Put the plant names on the screen, please. My hearing is not as good of yours.
yellow berries kinda look like Jerusalem cherries

Hi
According to Darryl Patton, (The Southern Herbalist) the berry can be eaten but get the seed out first. The berry has medicinal properties.
I think you're talking about poke weed
