Now that you've let them mix together, you'll have a heck of time telling them apart.

:wink:

Remember, if you ever find yourself digging up some of the Petasites rhizome, I'd love to get a piece of it.

haha, my yellow groove would win such wars. My petasites hasn't shown much vigor so far. I'm starting to move pieces elsewhere to see if I'll stir any life into it.

So, whose Petasites are starting to bloom?
Southern Indiana.

The legal issues that will arise when the undead walk the earth are legion, and addressing them all is well beyond what could reasonably be accomplished in this brief Essay. Indeed, a complete treatment of the tax issues alone would require several volumes.
