Question
Hi there, I discovered this plant at my backyard. The fruit is green and when it is ripe it will turn to dark purple. The seed is grape-like. Is this wild grape? Is this edible? Thanks.
Answer
Jacqueline, the shape of the fruit and leaves you've posted do not appear to be grape. Grapes (genus Vitis) always have tendrils that are produced opposite the leaves. You could confirm this by inspecting the plant. I can't help you further without knowing what part of the world this plant came from (it is always crucial to know the location of the plant to help narrow down the choices). Best wishes.
