| I found this guy growing in a plant that I bought. It looks vaguely familiar, but I am not able to place it.
I potted it up separately and thought I would grow it up. Then i thought maybe I should see what it is first. I hate to spend the time taking care of a noxious weed :-) Not familiar yet with all the local flora or volunteers that can grow up. Anyone recognize this plant? thanks Bill |

| Great! and appreciate the help. I agree, it looked pretty cool which is the reason it caught my eye. It was growing in a vanilla orchid I purchased. DEFINITELY appreciate the help, I never would have been able to figure this one out on my own. Bill |

| Ok thanks it's good to know it's not a pest. I have not idea why my post is showing up twice. |
