Notes:
Okay. Planted what I thought was a strawberry plant, but, it can’t be. Could’ve been contaminated. the soil I mean. Okay so, it looks like giant parsley kind of, complete with u shaped stalks. Root is deep red at the base. vaining is not strawberry, & its hairless. The juice tastes very citrus like, between a lemon and tangerine. The leaf itself tastes bitter, like a cucumber skin. WTH is this thing? If somehow I planted something else, it could be an herb, medicinal or culinary. A veg or…

Hi Chris, you mentioned “the juice”. Is this from its fruits? Please describe its shape & its flowers also. If your plant hasn’t have fruits or flowers yet, I’m only wildly speculating here, perhaps some kind of Columbine plant? Please make new post with plant’s photos taken in natural light i.e. image of the whole plant, and its side view. Link below for images of Columbine. Thank you and best wishes! https://www.google.com/search?q=roots+and+leaves+of+Columbine&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj7j6TPj_XSAhVH4mMKHVw3CIQQ7AkIKA&biw=2098&bih=1015#imgrc=rPTFYVwEa_FfYM:
