Do you recognize this plant? My neighbor, in Aurora, MN, bought it this spring. The seller "thought" it was a Zone 3 perennial . . . maybe . . . and also couldn't remember what it's called. It has lovely glossy, deep green leaves atop deep red stems. Anyone, anyone? Thank you for your help! Sara Barnes
