Pigeon Berry, a gardening plant in Zhu Jiu Ying's residence

The world is really globalized gradually.  Now, everywhere in Taiwan, you can see a lot of different foreign plants standing by the side/middle of the busy traffic streets or public/private gardens.

In front of Zhu Jiu Ying's residence a plant, called "Jing Lu Hua" in Mandarin as the left picture shown, can be traced to its birth place Mexico, now widely introduced into Taiwan and become a mean of the gardening plant.

My friend from States felt great interesting over it, because it looks like some kind of the edible berries, lovely color and attractive outlook.  No wonder it could draw many tourists to take its pictures.  I am not professional at gardening, but promise to search for the answer and reply my friend.

Here is the answer - its scientific name is called "Duranta Erecta," another name in English are Skyflower, Pigeon Berry and Golden Dewdrop, and importantly the lovely golden fruit is poisonous.  Don't ever mistake to taste it.
