Paul...it can get to be six feet high! but the one in the pic is about 4 ft tall....I had one in the back area of the yardback in the section we let go wild) that grew taller than my Hubby and he is 6 ft 1in tall!
An interesting note about the berries from this plant...wirches once used the juice as an ink for writing spells and in their book of shadows!

I don't think I've ever seen one of these before. Does it grow very big?
