Hey all,

My elderly Hungarian neighbors have a plant growing along the side of their house, which they call "Hungarian Spinach" or "European Spinach Tree". I've looked up these names to no avail. It grows to about 5 or 6 feet tall, with tender tasty leaves and disk-shaped seed pods about the size of a dime. The gold finches just love the seeds! It doesn't seem to match the descriptions I've seen for Malabar and New Zealand Spinach. Anyone have any ideas? Confused
