KentPfeiffer said:Eutrochium purpureum is "supposed" to have whorled leaves with 4 or 5 leaves per node, but in reality there can be anything from 2 to 5. First year plants, in particular, often have just a pair of leaves at each node. These first year plants commonly bloom, even if they only get a foot or so tall.
