Mystery Plant

Mystery plant This plant recently sprouted and grew quickly in one of Pica’s garden plots, which has since been heavily mulched. If anybody has any idea what it is, do let us know.

  1. Do the leaves have a scent? It looks like some genetically confused basil. My 2¢.

  2. Ditto on that hybrid basil idea — looks a lot like volunteer mixes I had between green and purple basils. But I can’t tell if the leaves are opposite…

  3. Amaranth.

    Yes it am.

  4. AMARANTH! Ron, I strew some amaranth seeds around that spot a couple of years ago, forgot all about it. Oh you’re good. Thank you! (This plant is now about knee-high…)
