No High

This is a fantastic looking shrub and many people may well mistake for the infamous cannabis plant. But Datisca cannabina will not give you a high other than the pure joy of growing it.
Datisca cannabina

Easily growing to 2 metres tall (6ft), making an impressive plant in any garden. Small yellow flowers form in May - August. 

It is an actinorhizal plant, which means it forms a symbiotic relationship with bacteria to fix Nitrogen into the soil. So will help to improve poorer soils where it grows.

Just make sure you label it prominently to make sure it does not get swiped for smoking!
