Shoo fly plant. Nicandra physlaodes. An annual which will self seed around.
Nice that we agree for once S.S.
Apple of Peru sounds a better name for this species .
Why "better"? The scientific name is always more precise than any common name.

I always use the scientific names for plants ; I was referring to the name 'Shoo-Fly plant' !
Have no idea where this has come from then as I certainly didn't plant it!
