True Aaron, but the honey is wonderful-if you like dark honey.  The flavor
is strong without the bitterness of buckwheat and the color, when held to
the light is that of dark red wine.  I found a stand of the stuff close to
me and am going to transplant some at home.  It can't be any more invasive
than the brambles that sometimes do and sometimes don't produce wild
blackberries.
