Mystery Crop

Soy beans, tobacco, corn, cotton, wheat... I know.

This I do not.

I have been living in North Carolina my whole life and I have never seen this.

Now, I can tell you the exact location of two of these fields.

So my dear sweet blog friends, help me.

What in the world is this?

The plant has very pretty tops.

It also looks similar to a small corn plant.

I've googled everything I know to google and I have come up with nothing.

Thanks for helping!

I will sleep much better knowing what this is.
