Ron,

It sounds like the plant Penny was talking about is Castor Oil Plant or =
Castor Bean (Ricinus communis).  It is easily grown from seed and will =
reach 12 feet in one summer here in NW Ok.

  Good morning, Penny,

  What a delightful adventure in Gino's garden, and what a flight of
  fancy!

  It must have been an amazing sight to have seen some of his tropical
  goodies thriving in St. Louis. I wonder what the "c" plant could have
  been. Maybe cassava? It is poisonous and the root has to be soaked to
  leach the acids out of the tuber. Dunno.
