Plant and Red / Black berries ID

[Jonnybigpants]

Hi Guys hope you are all well, I have a plant growing in my garden that has produced red berries this year, some of them have since turned black.

Does anyone know what this plant is?
Hope you can help

Not sure, looks like Black Bryony Tamus communis.

Many thanks for the reply, I dont think it is that one as the berries arnt as clustered, however from looking at that I think I have found that it is
TUTSAN [Hypericum androsaemum]
Not very edible

[Johnny81]

Tutsan is a good shout, one of our more experienced botanists will be on soon to give you a definitive answer.

Definitely Tutsan! Not common.

Many thanks for the responses guys I dont think i'll be eating those berries.
When you say not common do you mean a rare plant has found its way into my garden?

Kind regards

[Hedera]

Not rare, but usually only in southern half of the country. Was a garden escapee. Presumably you didn't plant it!

Not common? It's pretty common as a native mainly in the west, and also as a garden plant/escape. Without knowing where you are in the country, chances are yours was originally grown as a garden plant.

No I didnt plant it, its only small (couple of feet high) and it wasnt there a couple of years ago, I live in the north west of England, about 15 south east of Liverpool

I have just recently taken an interest in wild food and have been out collecting plums, blackberries and dewberries near to where I live, even found a damson bush last night but i didnt pick any as I have only just identified it
I want to find a pear tree really
