I think the plant is too young yet to describe the shape of the leaf.
However, these 2 plants, seem to be more than just 1 year old. 2nd year
anyway.
I also, do not think that they are from seedlings. A few others thought it
might be from seedlings. I saw 5 of the 6 plants they had for sale. All of
them were very robust, well developed, and several eyes. Mine had 11 and 14.
They looked more like a clump division. But I am NO expert.
How does one count the pairs of veins? That I could do.
