Mystery revealed
August 30, 2011
Hats off to Patrick Belardo, who ID'd the mystery plant as Nutsedge.
The purveyor of this mystery, Edith Wallace, wrote:
"[The plant in the photo] is nutsedge, a noxious weed, but in Spain we purchased a special beverage, horchata, made of nutsedge tubers called chufa."
I think we all knew that already.
Not. (Thanks, Edith!)
