Mystery PlantToday, we are asking our readers to help solve a mystery – one that has everyone at Perry Wellness Center and Rudy’s Happy Patch Market scratching their heads. Until a question is answered, the mystery threatens to loom over everything. Even customers have gotten involved with trying to answer the question that one curious visitor first raised. It was a question that has been asked many times before, but this time even our experts were stumped.


It all started when a customer brought in a delicately blooming plant to Happy Patch and asked the unanswerable question: “What is this?" 
Our plant identification experts shook their heads, helpless to provide an answer. Other customers chimed in with their thoughts: “It looks like a honeysuckle.” “It may be a running vine.” “It must be some rare plant.”


Given the increasing number of hybrid varieties of familiar plants, local plant lovers have long learned that our market is a good location for plant information and identification. Rarely are market staffers unable to solve the mysteries of a plant’s name and origin. So, we are crowd-sourcing this mystery and hoping that the photo, above, of the customer holding his mystery plant will bring closure once and for all.


If you have any information on this plant, please contact us at Perry Wellness Center. When the mystery is solved, we will post the answer on our website and Facebook page. Plant enthusiasts, unite!
