Identification Area

ok will definately pull out the chicken feeders lol then while doing that i will pull some bits out if find ugly :D

I find Rosebay Willowherb easy to deal with, although it does get everywhere. It is easy to indentify even when fairly young, and it doesn't have deep roots so they just pull out with the minimum of effort. The trouble is, like dandelions, their seeds spread for miles on the breeze, so I guess...

thanks again blackthorn from my friend. daitheplant my friend looked it up and your right its from the iris family so thats sorted that out thanks ever so much

Sounds like a plan :rotfl::thumb::rotfl:

Thank you both for your advice..the whole lawn is affected,so it looks as if I want a reasonable lawn I am going to have to use the remedy..and then overseed..Cheers

Thank you all for your replies......I am sooo chuffed if it is camelia Lollipop.....it has grown back healthy and strong, so I unwittingly did some good by chopping it right back, by the look of things. I did'nt see any flowers on it last year, but it was in August we moved here.....am I right...

Thanks for the photo Aaron Have put mine close to the fence and by looking at yours, think I will also try (once it grows more) to train it up the fence on netting rather than overgrowing in the border .... so thanks for that!

It's variegated though?

had some all over the plots we are using at college some of them had mutated and we had white a pink flowered ones too =]

I think a lot depends on the size of your garden. I treat aquilegia as a semi-weed, simply because if I let it establish I'd have no room for anything else. The same probably applies for teasel.

A good website for general identification and especially weed ident. is Down garden services, I forget the URL though. sorry. but google it all the same.

Yep, over time they can get very large

Thanks, I do have other plants in the garden that Bees love, this one has just flowered. I will put pics up of the "Tall Yellow" plants that Bees also love when they flower.My garden is always full of Bees all through the year, from the early blossom on trees ( i think they are...

It's a weed Evette. It's easy to get rid of if you don't let it flower and seed. It's worth having a big purge against it for one year - it will save you years of work.

I would agree with Blackthorn, it does look like the cow parsley family from that angle. But each flower would need to be on a stalk coming from the same place - as in Umbellifer- see hereIt looks refined so Ammi majus springs to mind.So many garden plants are not far removed from wild...

any help?

Using the lead that woo kindly provided, a bit of googled seems to confirm it is Geum coccineum.

O.K.! Will do!!:thmb:

If you get stuck, then PM me in amonths time or so to remind me and I willcollect some seeds from mine for you. I will forget. All plants vary a little from seed, that is how genetics works.

I have never seen striped roses. I love the pin stripe and george Burns. Thank you WOO
