vitrsna said:Ann, have you tried breaking a stem or leaf to see if milky fluid comes out? Have you rubbed your fingers on the leaves to see what it smells like?
Beverly, yes, my last photo in my original post shows the milky sap when i pulled a leaf from the stem. I will try seeing what the leaves smell like & report back.
It seems the leaves are clasping but I can't be positive of that. I tried to determine yesterday exactly what constitutes clasping in botanical terms & am pretty sure these are clasping but have my doubts as to my ability to understand perfectly.
Thanks for trying Celia.
