Okay first of al I love these plants and it’s crazy that natives can be so lovely! What is that berry? What are all of these? I know you don’t live in Pacific Northwest USA because I don’t recognize anything except maybe a maidenhair fern? What part of the world is this ?

Hehe thanks!! I live in Southeast Pennsylvania, U.S.A. so the opposite side. Makes sense there'd be different plants. I watched this show Grimm set in the Pacific Northwest and whenever they go into the woods it looks like they've gone back in time to some kind of primordial forest! It seems cool, I'd love to see it someday. Anyway, these plants are:
- Monarda didyma (Scarlet Beebalm)
- Ceanothus americanus (New Jersey Tea)
- Sambucus canadensis (American Elderberry)
- Aronia melanocarpa (Black Chokeberry)
- Phytolacca americana (pokeweed)
- Physalis virginiana (Virginia Groundcherry)
- Fragaria vesca (Woodland Strawberry)
- Adiantum pedadtum (Northern Maidenhair Fern)
The mostly green berries are aronia, the white berries are strawberry. Everything here is edible though, in some capacity or another 🤤
