I was out looking for wild ginseng for my first time today. My knowledge of it really only comes from the internet. I found a lot of plants that looked like very young ginseng, but I didn't want to uproot them because it's against the law in my state to pick plants with less than three prongs. I spotted a few of pic related. It closely resembles what a cluster of ginseng berries looks like. I pulled one up and it had a little round root, but it didn't look too much like a ginseng root. Does anyone know what I found? This is in Wisconsin. Input from anyone here who actually digs ginseng would be nice too.
General identification thread so everyone can contribute.

only very, very superficially in that they are red berries. Have you seen a ginseng plant in real before?
From the photo it looks like Arum maculatum to me. But its hard to tell.

You seem to know a bit about ginseng. I have a guide now, but I was at a friend's property learning property lines so we can dig there and I found this. Is it ginseng?
