Amara dulcis


The scientific name is Solanum dulcamara.

It has many common names, including deadly nightshade.

According to Culpeper's Complete Herbal it is "excellent to remove witchcraft" (link here)

According to the Robert W. Freckmann Herbarium at UW-Stevens Point, it is "potentially invasive" (link here).

We have it here in the garden.
