plant ID #824154

Asked April 01, 2023, 4:47 PM EDT

Hello,

Can you identify this plant for me, please?  It is growing in a shaded, moist, rich soil environment and spreading with rhizomes.  Thank you in advance for your help.

Expert Response

The leaves are only emerging, so a positive ID is tricky. It almost looks like a Solanum, like the weedy nightshades. If you bruise a leaf, is there a distinctive scent?
I hope you'll share photos in the next few weeks as there is more plant to see.

OK, thanks. I'll see if it flowers.

A few leaves fully emerged so the whole shape can be seen is probably enough. When they are out, send photos of this wider view, and a closer one of a leaf with growing tip.
