<https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-hDmSfrpz9fM/UIBNOda_3XI/AAAAAAAAAL8/iP0KIow5vWk/s1600/Cayratia.tri-Fl.jpg> Sharing images of Cayratia trifolia photographed in the outskirts of Chennai in early October. Seems to be an aggressive creeper meriting its common name of 3-leaf Bushkiller.
Can someone tell me if : - the four fleshy white parts of flower are sepals or petals ? - The ripe fruit was full of purple juice, is it edible or toxic ? The last image is that of another Vitaceae species, Ampelopsis ( Porcelain berry) , with brilliant blue berries turning dark purple. Originally imported to the USA as an ornamental vine, it is distributed widely by birds and is now a rampant invasive in the forests and parks of Northeastern USA Thanks and regards .....
