don't have to read the over size story ( carrot like leafs, minty smell rapid growth height 4 feat age 3 weeks width freaking bush!!! to help you with size for all you flower peeps the spiky flower next to it is the Florentine iris fully grown and flowered twice

ok so there is this place in kenya called kari(Kenyan agricultural research institute) any way i stop by there a lot they have some kik ass drips and other shit and out side lots of individuals sell plants, so i got this guy when it was real small about the size of a fully grown carrot plant, the seller told me that muslim s make soup from it and i being the colanary experimenter that i am just had to have it so i brought it home secured some gardening loam space for it and over the last few weeks gave it some tlc lolz. anyway the last week its just mutated it has multiplied its size by a good 6-800 % its huge i don't even know what it is still and am afraid to eat it before i do:wall::wall:. it has a minty smell large leafs that are shaped like carrot leafs its only 4 feet at most but the bush is large about 5 feet maybe 9 feet all around. can any one shed some light

if there is an agricultural extension service...usually hooked up with a local college or university..you can mail them a sample and they will tell you everything you want to know about it. for a very small fee.

haha at first glance of that pic i thought it was a wild parsley, they have leaves that look just like that. but im pretty sure they dont get to be 9 foot bushes lol

Looks like Mugwort to me or Artemisia vulgaris. The leaves smell like mint and when burned (after drying) smells similar to Cannabis. You have to be careful with Mugwort. It can be poisonous if you ingest too much.

well i checked that one out too, am afraid thats not it either, it has purple stems and white leaves, it also grows tall not bushy. mine is green and has light green stems and is more bushy than tall. thx for the try tho. every day i look at like 5 Artemisia plants to see if i can find it i have done 80 . about 300 more to go :(

i think i found it its on the artemisia page on wiki, ( can't belive i missed it) its the Artemisia absinthium i think i missed it cuz the one on there is flowering. i guess i went and got wormwood, thats why nothing around it will grow >< any way thx guys
