    Hi.

    I've forgotten what I planted here! It's the tall leafy plant I need an i.d. for please.

    I suspect I planted root cuttings because they've come up in close pairs.

    Thanks.

    Are they Jerusalem artichokes? They would usually produce a number of stems from each tuber.

    can be worse (like me) - inheriting an extra small garden, and asking here about the chives that came with it :)
