Description
Every Wednesday, I drop my wife off with her girlfriends, for a day of shopping and lunch. I go on a mystery ride. Today I ended up at the Garden in the Woods, in Framingham, Massachusetts. It is part of the New England Flower Society. These are White-fruited Red Baneberries (Actaea Rubra f. neglecta).

Nice photo-- This is not a red baneberry-- there are two varieties of baneberries, one which is red and one which is white (as this one is) The white are called "Dolls Eyes" for reasons that you can see here.

Most unusual. Fine shot of these handsome berries, Dana, sharply contrasted against the darker background! Either white pitted olives, or eyeballs on a stick.

Sorry SheriffOrr! I spent almost 4 hours in the Garden in the Woods and after every plant, that I photographed, I knelt down and took a shot of the identifying sign, that was placed there by the New England Flower Society. Also, at the entrance to the gardens, there was a bulletin board, with a photo ID of every plant currently in bloom. This bulletin board is updated every week. Add to that the info below, that I Googled and you can to. Actaea rubra (Red baneberry, Chinaberry, Doll's Eye) is a poisonous herbaceous flowering plant native to North America in the family Ranunculaceae. After flowering green berries are produced. The fruits are ellipsoid shaped berries containing several seeds. In mid to late summer, the berries turn bright red or white (forma neglecta). The berries also have a black dot on them. Fruit is showy, poisonous, red or occasionally white berries on a slender stalk. PS: I checked your gallery and you have not posted since joining on May 1, 2003. Nor have you read the site mail that I sent you on July 8th.
