I can't remember what this is. I am sure I wanted it, since I had a stake in it over winter. I may have got it at the Arlington RU.

Anna, I am not sure, but it looks like Oenothera biennis, Common Evening Primrose

I think you gave that to me! I have a marker with that...just not with the plant. We will know for sure when it blooms.

Yes, it will be interesting to find out, it looks very healthy.

You know, I have a plant in one of my beds that looks like that foliage. I didn't pull it up because it didn't appear anywhere else. Too many times I pull before I know for sure and loose something nice. I hope that is what mine is too.

I do the same thing, or forget I have planted something and then plant some thing on top of it if it hasn't started yet. Now stakes are my best reminders.

Anna, I remembered what one on the DGers said about perennials. She basically said that they are planted and expected to come up the next year, but if they don't, chances are you forgot you planted them!

That might be why some people prefer annuals...less memory involved!
