Douglas Hunt on Jun 16, 2013That doesn't look like a weed leaf to me, but I'm afraid I can't hep more than that. You may have to wait to see if it blooms so we can see the flower. Or, cut a couple of leaves and take them, in a plastic bag, to your local extension office.Helpful Reply

Sue max on Jun 16, 2013do the leaves smell like black licorice when you crush them? If so it is Anise hyssop, will spread vigorously, grow to 3-4 feet tall, but also attracts hummingbirds and butterflies with its small scented blue-purple heads. if no scent to leaves, pull it, it is a weed!Helpful Reply

Maria Pagan on Jun 17, 2013This is very interesting! Right now I am torn between Turks cap and grape vine. The leaves are so similar to on-line photos. But I haven't seen any bloom on my plant yet. It might be a grape plant, the only problem with that is that it doesn't have tendrils.Helpful Reply
