Such a pretty plant.  It is early in the year, so most of these are under a foot tall.  They will be just as pretty in the fall, only by then they will be over ten feet tall.  Tasty and lovely leaves.  I love this plant.  This plant dies each year, but comes up from seed with no help, year after year.   This plant is descended from the one my mother planted in our yard 42 years ago.  Traditions can be lovely.
