Too bigger leaves for a Hawthorn, some sort of Beam perhaps? Not a White beam.

Thanks people! I think the leaf looks slightly different to Lobelia Lupa but then I'm only going by Google images....not too clued up about plants as you can might guess! Never thought about cornflowers - it hasn't flowered yet so may have to wait and see - if it's the same plant I'll keep my...

Mine grew to about seven foot last year!I too didn't have a clue what they were until I asked on here :-)

Nice one Mum....Oooh i mean 'M'

Or maybe Escallonia 'Pink Princess'.

It is a perenial, not a tree. The foliage does look similar though.

Thanks all

Thanks Victoria! Don't want to kill the poor thing off but it needs to do the job so win win for dogs and bees

I agree with White Bryony. It seems to appear suddenly and is already meters long here! Mine is already in berry stage but I just leave it clamber about as it's on stone walls.

I get a lot of these weevil grubs - actually found a weevil beetle today and destroyed it - they go crack when you stand on them - You will need to treat the compost bin as these will hatch into beetles and lay eggs (at night) in your baskets and pots as has been said, and if any are in the...
