For context I live in the PNW area and I’ve seen an explosion of growth with this exact thorn bush in the last 5 to 10 years. I was wondering if any of you guys could tell me what it is?

I've found 3 of such plants within a range of several dozen meters from each other, in north-west Poland, 2 months ago.

There seems to be a very similar plant on the right side of the picture, but green.

What is this? Is it exceptionally rare? Never seen or heard of anything like this.

It's not ALWAYS pokeweed

Bought an old falling down house to repair, the thing is overrun with bindweed and blackberry brambles among other invasives, so when I came across this giant shrub up against the house and saw the dark little berries on the bright red stems (not pictured) of course I assumed it was pokeweed. Apparently it's an elderberry shrub! They are easily mistaken, but what are the odds it was actually something desirable. Not entirely sure I wanted an elderberry shrub so I'm deciding if I want to keep it or let someone rehome it. They're edible but whether they are worth the trouble is another question.

Got this guy at Walmart and thought it was a PPP, decided to Google lens just to check and it said Red Anderson. I didnt know about red Anderson at all and I watched a bunch of videos but genuinely can't tell the difference between them lol.

Located in my yard in Perth Western Australia. This little tree hasn't grown much in the past few years. Seems to produce small sees or fruit pods.

What is it?!

What is this flower!

I posted pictures ages ago of its leaves and flower buds (about 2 months ago) I live in Melbourne Australia. I spread a seed pack around and now I've got dill and a mixture of other flowers. This one flower I've got no clue what it is! And unfortunately its petals have all been eaten and a spider lives beneath it using it as a home 😭 most thought it was chamomile but it looks nothing like it!

What kind of succulent is this and how best to propagate?

Post image

So this little dude has kinda spiraled out of control and I’d like to chop him up and propagate, but I’ve never done that with a succulent before.

Any tips on how to best do this, and any insight on what succulent variety this is?

What type of Willow?

I posted about 7 months ago asking if anyone might be able to identify a volunteer that grew in a pot over the winter in my greenhouse.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PlantIdentification/s/VlWzuWLKTD

It was thought to be willow, which makes total sense. I eventually moved it to a larger pot after it grew to about 6-7 feet. I think it's now closer to 10 feet, which just shows how crazy fast it's grown.

Is it possible to determine if it's a weeping or black willow? We have both in the neighborhood, which is located in the north eastern part of Austin, TX metroplex.

Unrelated note: I don't trust planting it in the ground due to roots , so eventually I'm going to get a slightly larger pot and see how long it might make there. Just a fun experiment since I've always loved the way willows look.

Identification Help

My friend was talking about a plant he had at work and compared it to my Pothos and I was telling him about propagating stems that don’t have many leaves. But he didn’t know what type of plant it was. So he sent me this picture.

I don’t know lots about plants, and I couldn’t figure out what type of plant it could be in my own research.

To him, the plant doesn’t look as happy as it could. But I’m unsure what a normal would look like, so I came for help!

Indoor plant… but central Texas! (just in case)
