Message definition (AY Honors/Edible Wild Plants/Answer Key 2)

Note that we recommend that the instructor not use pokeweed (''Phytolacca americana'') as a legitimate answer to this requirement. Pokeweed leaves are commonly eaten in the southern United States, even though all parts contain toxins at all stages of growth (though in varying amounts). The toxicity increases as the plants mature, but we strongly recommend that these not be eaten at any stage of growth, because pokeweed poisoning can be fatal.
