    Genus and species, please.
    When I found this plant, it really surprised me. It's way out of biome. This may be too easy for some...

    Apologies for the blur, it was both windy and raining when I took the photo, and even with speed as priority I couldn't get it clearer. I must have taken 50 shots, and this was the clearest of them.

    But no, not P. edulis.

    Yuppers, Pierrot gets it again.

    I was astounded to find it in my neighbor's yard - we're a hundred miles from the normal growth range.
