Pull them up now and dispose of.

You can always wait for them to grow past the two leaf stage (as most seedlings are difficult to distinguish at the two leaf stage) and then post photos on here. Of course, if you put just one veggie seed in a pot and there are a lot of seedlings then you will be able to work it out. Although...

Sorry Agatha, my garden doesn't have those sort of plants in it, apart from the odd Salvia:wink:

Well Done SussexG - my head is still reeling.I picked leaves from three different hardy Geraniums in my garden to compare with no 7, which Victoria Plum got absolutely right. And it still looked more like a buttercup. :D

Pooped in for five minutes, just out of curiosity.... Waaaahhhh... :dh: It's hard to predict how difficult an ID can be... I wouldn't have recognised one or two but this much? I don't have some of these in the garden, but what I do have, mine look so very different from yours! Why? E.g....

I have yet to see any flowers on it, and it is still spreading like mad. Thank you everyone for your responses. I will persevere with the weeding and spraying.Thank you for the friendly welcome

Agree with Peter. No idea about the hedge, but some sort of privet?

Hey guys, thanks very much for your replies and advice. Ive put them up for £5 each and had quite a bit of interest in the one day ive had them for sale so crossed fingers.Thanks Again

Thanks for identifiying that plant for me.

Oriental or Asiatic lilies should all do well out there as long as they are kept watered... :thumb:

We have these growing on our allotments and I think this is the spore stage,then the proper xmas tree green growth comes later,I found some in front of the door to one of our sheds this afternoon and as I brushed it with my gloved hand the spores started to fall from the top part and drifted off...

It is very early to say, and once the true leaves unfold it might be a bit easier, my guess at this stage would be apple, but its a wild guess:D

That's it! Lots of thanks to you Kandy. :thku:Thank you all for answering. I was going to get some better photos but don't need to now. The Dogs Tooth Violet is exactly what it is! I looked it up and found that it's a member of the lily family. Lilies are very toxic to cats :( so pretty though...

Thanks for the welcome!Aha, yep, that seems about right. Great, thank you.

Marley is right (naturally) It is known as the False Castor Oil Plant as It's leaves are simlar in shape to the true Cstor Oil Plant, Ricinus, of which the seeds are poisonous.

I created a garden plan a year or so ago, with it all properly marked out where I had planted what. Then I went and lifted and moved stuff, so I still get a surprise in Spring when something reappears.

Hi, I am located at Howden, East Yorkshire. From the replies and having looked at images on the net, i am 90% sure that they are garlic chives. Many thanks for the advice OBG

if you squish them do they have any content? they do look a bit too orangy for vine weevil eggs! loopy

Yeah strange name Caj.:DKinda plant you can really get your teeth into.:lollol:

Hello Adam. Can't be sure what it is as those are just seed leaves. It's not hairy bittercress so the most likely culprit is chickweed. It's just an annual so if you don't let it seed you will get rid of it. There's no need to worry about getting the roots out. Just keep chopping their heads off...
