From seed saved each year

my only suggestion when dealing with this plant is to wear gloves and be careful it's sap doesn't get in a cut or (Horrors!) in your eyes! I like it too but stopped growing it because the deer were interested.. hope they didn't sample it. Are you growing it in a container?
