Hello,
My wife and I moved into a Minneapolis home this past fall. It's been quite fun seeing what plants have been coming up this spring and summer, as the former owners were involved gardeners.
There is one plant that is crowding out several others and I've been unable to get any idea of what it might be.
The stalk when broken open seems to have a hollow core to it, and the root system as seen in the attached photo is pinkish/red
