This plant looked yellowed and had red seeds. A friend told me he had some like that along-side greener specimens.

Not sure i'v ever seen it in the wild. It would be easy to walk past, especially if you were not looking for it. That, and it's more or less wiped out in some places due to early/trespassing diggers. When you see them catch somebody with five pounds of dried root---that's a lot of plants and a lot of ground covered.

When we logged my place a few years ago I was told I had some, but I never really worried about it. Since the logging I am not sure if it's still there or not.
I remember it looks like buckeye or virginia creeper but 2 of the 5 leaves are smaller.....they then started talking about "nodes" and the like and they lost me....

Don't worry about anything but the leaves if you are trying to identify. The key are the distinctive shaped five leaves on a non-woody stem. They grow in groups, or "prongs." The older the plant the more "prongs" or sets of five leaves it has. A new plant would have one set of five leaves, a little older two sets of five, and so on. The one in the video has four prongs, which is a fairly old plant. Also, the red seeds this time of year help with I.d. And if you find any do not tell anyone.
