WHAT KIND OF PLANT IS THIS? - QUICK FUN CONTEST - 20 SBD FOR THE WINNER

papa-pepper (80) in contest • 7 years ago

The value of crytpo is low and some are losing hope!

I figured I'd give some SBD away in an attempt to encourage others. Recently I finally had some seeds germinate, and the seedlings are now up. Of course I know what kind of plant this is, but I was wondering if any of you did. Now this isn't exactly a plant for everyone, but some people find it to be really helpful.

WHO KNOWS WHAT PLANT THIS IS?

It is known by a few names, and once someone replies with one of those names, I'll send them over the 20 SBD and declare them to be the winner.

You can guess as often as you like until there is a winner, but please do not edit your comments. If you want to guess again or change your guess, just make a new comment.

We'll see if anyone can get this. Hopefully someone will guess it soon, because I've got a lot to do today, but I'll try to keep an open eye on this post to make sure I don't miss the winner. Have fun!

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

Until next time…

Interesting guess, Lagundi = Vitex negundo.... AKA the "Chinese Chaste Tree." This one is actually Vitex agnus-castus AKA "Vitex" or "Chaste Tree..."

Since they are both a type of Vitex and both in the higher classification of "Chaste Tree" I'll call you a winner! Enjoy the SBD @natz04!

Well, PapaPepper, I can think of about 25 things it is NOT, but I am having a hard time thinking of what it IS. I feel like I should know this. Im pretty sure I am wrong, but I might as well guess. My guess is BEE BALM!

Anyway, thanks for doing this! What a cool guy you are! :D

$0.00

Not Bee Balm, and this does seem to be more difficult than I had hoped.... I could only think of two kinds of plants myself from the photo, but there sure are some good guesses out there.
