Planted some wildflower seeds in an area and had an unidentified plant emerge a couple years ago. It's a perennial, as this is it's third year returning. This year though, as with many wildflowers, it has begun to grow upward, rather than just emerging with a few leaves at ground level, while a root system is developed. It has similar characteristics as a Cup Plant, with the leaves being alternate but attached, thus forming the "cup". I have cup plants growing, so I know it's not one of them. The stalk of this plant is round. Leaves are distinctively different in shape, yet there is a "cup" formed, just as with the cup plant. I'd REALLY like to know what it is if someone could share that info. Thanks!
