Castanea sativa 'Albomarginata' Castanea sativa 'Variegata'Just looking at the descriptions of both on the same nursery site, the main thing I notice is the eventual size stated, I assume they are not the same plant otherwise a nursery wouldn't stock it separately.

Thank you @wiseowl and

I nearly pulled it up when I first saw it.A neighbouring allotment lady wondered if it were Good King Henry so it seems she was not far off.I nearly pulled it up today 'cos it's on the sunny side of my onions.If I leave it, it seems I will struggle to pull it up! Still, I've got a chainsaw...

Transplant to a new position and grow on. Then you may see , its not too late. Alternately, cut them and add to a sandwich, well tasty!

Agreed, nothing beats looking at a nice mature plant in your garden knowing that you've grown it yourself from a cutting. Always a satisfying sort of achievement

Looks like Birch to me. Dont do any cutting back till late summer, they can bleed badly when the sap is rising.I could get big eventually and looks to be close to that wall.

When I grew it I remember a note on the seed packet saying it was an annual and no roots remain to grow the following year, I guess that was to stop people being put off by the name Convolvulus, (bindweed), now I see it is classed as perennial but it wasn't with me.
