Re: possible elm tree???

Hi!

It's hard to tell from the pics, but elms can be identified by the fact that they all have leaves where the bottom edges are offset near the petiole like this:

Hope this helps!

Re: any idea what this berry plant is?

Hello!

I would agree that it is most likely some type of nightshade! Careful - I think that it's poisonous!
