    I planted some Fuchsias last year which are finally putting in an appearance, however there's a mystery plant too, any ideas anyone? Thank you.

    Did you mean to say Freesias? (so the mystery plant is the one at low level)

          Looks like Speedwell, a weed (but should be in flower by now).

            Could it be a mint?

                Looks like a mint to me too, similar leaf shape to my Mentha piperita 'Chocolate'.

                    I think you're right Scrungee. Did some research and found some pictures looks very similar. I'm in the north of uk so maybe a bit early for flowering here? I crushed some leaves and its definitely not mint. :ThankYou:
