These were in a 'weed/plant' seed pack I bought and have just started sprouting up....anyone knows what they are? I thought they could be hollyhocks when they first started growing but now not so sure???



Also this one;

and this one I think is groundsel which I believe to be a no-no? Can someone confirm before I destroy it!

Hi Dawn,

The first one is Willowherb. Its everywhere at the moment, very invasive. Probably didn't come with your seeds but seeds have blown into your pot. Its not harmful but mine don't like the taste which is always a sign not to bother.

Not sure about the second one, it needs to grow up a bit.

Third is Groundsel, destroy it!

Awww crap! Thanks Dave...looks like I got some weeding to do tomorrow then

I've suddenly had that willow herb start springing up everywhere.

So thank you Dawn for asking the questions. I think I will just pull it all out. Tilly hasn't been near it, and I don't tend to feed to the others anything that Tilly won't touch.

pulled all mine up today, gutted! Just when I thought I was starting to produce some fodder for the torts in the garden!!! DOH!

Had some in my garden, I pull it up as soon as I see it
