I found a very mysterious plant in my backyard and i want to know what it is?

It has very large green leaves, it is about 4 ft. tall right now, and the stalk is VERY thick, about 3 inches around and is a reddish, purple color. Anyone know where is can find out what this plant is or may be, or do you know what it might be? Any websites? Please help, I think it might be some type of fruit bearing tree, as we have been throwing our fruit seeds out in the backyard for years.Thanks.

Sounds like pokeweed to me. Check out this website for pictures.
Reply:Take a picture of the plant and take the picture and a leaf from the plant to a Nursery or Garden Center. They will be able to tell you what the plant is. It sounds to me like the plant is a Castor Plant , Castor Oil Comes from .
Reply:Take the leaves to your local nursery or a Armstrong nursery and they will look it up and let you know. Good luck
Reply:Take a picture of it, then take that to a nursery and country extension agent, or post online and provide url for people to look at here.
