Name this plant please! - October 20th, 2003 at 12:46 AM
Hello Everyone,
I have the strangest plant in my garden, it was here when I moved here in June of 2002. The plant was cut down sometime last fall, but these little fuzzy buds appeared in March 2003. I took pictures in March, April, May and then again today. Buds that started out less than an inch long have grown into a plant that towers over my two story house in 7 months! Can someone please tell me what the name of this plant is? It's hard to tell from recent pictures, but the plant appears to be growing flower buds at the top. The stalk is hollow, rather like bamboo. But, the stalk and leaves are sticky and leave a residue on my hands. The leaves are over 3 feet wide now.
You will find the pictures here:
