    Hi everyone I'm unsure what I have here, first instinct was pussy willow but it's popped up about 3ft away from a couple of blueberry plants so I'm hoping it's the latter. 20220426_154207.jpg 20220426_154219.jpg

    I'd say blueberry out of the two, but I'm not sure about the "popped up" bit! :biggrin: Don't they take a couple of years to get to that size from seed? Don't exactly know myself as I've only ever bought mature plants...
