I just want to doubly make sure because there are no photos yet for this plant. There are no thorns, so not a briar. I found this at a cemetery last year and it is my only photo. I have the original, so if you need a close up of a leaf or something I could do this.


I brought home a cluster of berries, in hopes to get some to germinate. I think only one did. I have a photo on the camera that I will have ID'ed to make sure its the same thing. The insects really chewed up the leaves, though. I'd like to have this growing near the front door to deter unwanted visitors. Hilarious!

Thank you very much.
