Thanks Walnut.

Oh dear, it is a weed then! oh well, cant win everything

They're great Whis4ey! You must have a big garden to cope with that monster whisk. The leaves on the one in my pic are very small and almost round. I'll keep looking and try and find a small branch the squirrels might knock off. I'm determined to find out what it is.Thanks:thumb:

Dave, the flowers on Exochorda are only small. I`m going to a garden tomorrow where there are 2 and will try and take a photo for comparison.:thumb:

"Sticky buds" to me too - Sticky willy ????

Asparagus Falcatus it is, then!The photos match up and looking at further information around the web it seems I have a stunning, herbaceous vine with huge twining stems that climb to 15 feet.Wow!Thanks for your help - I'd best get it back indoors!

Many thanks for the information !

:eek: I have it in my lawns ,spreading and smothering the grass, ought to be outlawed! Where on earth did it spring from...is it an import..or have I been lucky until now????????:confused:

Hi CP Have these in the Garden They are called Passionale there are some slightly darker one Called Nigrita.

i kinda thought that but being new and inexperienced i didn't wont to make a mistake:D

When I say small BM, I mean small! Mine is about 5m square. I've got a silver birch in there and I really don't think there's room for anything else! This is about the extent of it

isn't it becoming invasive in some places? I'm sure I saw something about it on TV

Looks a bit more like Ajuga to me although the colour is more 'foxglove'!

This one is called HEUCHERA, it is a hardy perennial.Cheerio

One thing about them Walnut. Plant them when you want.:D

Thanks Tropical Oasis. :thumb: Is it commonly known as 'Japonica' or is that something entirely different and do you know if it flowers at all - don't recall seeing any flowers on it. Good luck with your RHS - daughter finished hers last year but she's not near to ask about this plant.

Hi.I have a weed in my lawn that looks similar to asparagus in shape.There are no leaves yet! But the weeds are growing at about 4 inches high.It has a pinky coloured stalk with what I think maybe the beginnings of about 4 leaves around it. These leaves are approx an inch apart...

:D :D

Well In Kent its a bit too cold in winter for them so I have to grow in pots, but I understand they grow well unprotected in Cornwall. I find they self seed in all sorts of places. No real looking after needed, just a tidy up now and then, but as you know, dont remove the old leaf stalks,...
