Plant & Weed ID Megathread

We haven’t gotten around to doing anything with the garden of the house we bought. We have a monster growing at the back wall that I need help to ID.

Thanks in advance

Photos were too large, didn’t realise the post had actually gone through!

First one is the monster, second is some kind of shrub I need help with too.

Oh wow! That’s amazing, we’re very excited to see what colour it will be!! We’ll be leaving it where it is, no plans to do anything major with the garden for at least another year.

Thank you all!

Will do!

No idea where it came from but sure it’s the most exciting thing that’s happened in months

That's some amazing piece of work!

Not japanese knotweed. hard to tell without leaves. Thought it might be ash as it seeds very easily but can't see the black buds.

Cut to ground level or below and keep cutting it until it disappears altogether.

Looks like a cherry sapling .is there a cherry tree anywhere near

Branches look much redder in that picture. Agree it might be a cherry.

Ay

Laurel type?

Willow for me too.

Anyone any idea what this is. It has grown in our vegetable trough out the back garden,

Feverfew ?

It might be Mugwort, Artemisia vulgaris, but I have a suspicion that this is Ragweed, Ambrosia artemisifolia, a North American plant. You do not want this in your garden; it produces more pollen than any other plant, but this is not a good thing, it causes serious problems for anyone with allergy/respiratory issues. Get rid before it flowers.

See that or something vv similar in some of pine forests

They're a Lidl confused..

Don't think carrot. Could be calendula. Need to know the size.

My first thought was calendula but I think it is more curly. Agreed the size would help.

Will this be the game for 2021. Guess the seed then the seedlings then the plant

Looks like nasturtium to me.

Yes, broom, nice plant if short lived and can be a bit of a weed, but if its not doing any harm you could leave it, though it should be pruned after flowering, they can get straggly. They can be poisonous to dogs and cats - and humans.

This chilli is in a neighbors polytunnel. It's a very large plant, started from a seedling I gave him that came from a pack of Jalapeno seeds. Doesn't seem to be a Jalapeno, odd shape actually and color. Other plants from the same seed pack were Jalapenos, the only complaint I had about them is that the fruit were sterile - none of the seeds I saved sprouted the following year.
Thanks.


Any ideas? Leaning towards some kind of Habanero but doesn't really look all that much like one, other than the color. They're spicy not overwhelmingly hot.
