Papalo blooms!


Aren't they weird? The plant is about eight feet tall. Growing in a smallish pot, in a good deal of sun, without much water. It's TOUGH. I just wish its flavor and growth were a bit tamer...

I purchased this plant at my local nursery # small pots with 3 plants each. I love this plant. I walk by and grab a few leaves to munch on. The only bug I found on it was a worm like the ones on tomatoes (I only found one). no other bugs. I plan on planting more next year as it tastes and smells so good. I also cut up leaves for salsa, eggs and just about everything else I want this flavor in. The taste can be strong so start with a few leaves then add more if needed.
