Phytolacca rivinoides
Maybe sometimes called Soapberry.
Seen in mountain terrane at Rancho Naturalista. Primary pre-montane Caribbean slope rainforest at 2970ft (900m)
The American species is a favorite of mine. We used to use the berries as body paint. :-)
thanks Lisa. Such a pretty plant. I encountered it several times on my walks thought the rainforest and Costa Rican jungles.
