      Plant ID please.

      I have a friend who is wondering the names of these plants. He went on a cruise & they visited Grand Turk & also south Florida. I forgot to ask where the plants were. lol

      1st is Beautyberry (Callicarpa)... only reason I know is I have one! My area is probably too cold for it, as it doesn't
      thrive much, but has survived. That one looks much better than mine.

      We were in Grand Turk a few weeks ago, and I saw that yellow flower also! We went on a tour in Nassau and it was there also.

      Never knew the name of the first one. But they have grown wild everywhere I've lived as long as I can remember. We used to eat the berries so I know they are not poisonous. Don't know why we ate them because they aren't even big enough or good enough for anything.
