Plant & Weed ID Megathread

I have one of those Luzula sylvatica in front garden and never had a problem with it spreading.

Hi! I'm housesitting for an elderly relative and just cleaning up some beds. This is all over the base of the bed. I presume it's a weed but just want to identify it out of curiosity. It's pretty thick and dense but comes up easy enough.

Thanks in advance!

Or Persicaria

No good deed goes unpunished!

That's nothing like PERSICARIA roots.

You're most likely right with Geranium

Herb Robert - Geranium Robertianum https://www.rhs.org.uk/weeds/herb-robert

Not the worst of weeds and at least it is a native. Once you have it then it tends to spread but is very easily dealt with. We have it all over the place in walls and gravel but rarely get it growing in any flower beds that get any attention.

You said the magic words wooded area, damp (but not wet) shade is what it really likes.

Thanks folks. No idea how it got there!

Its Choisya but one of the varieties. Its not Choisya ternarta per se as that has much much wider leaves. Perhaps something more akin to Choisya ternata Snow Flurries or Aztec Pearl?

Edit> Should have said common name is Mexican Orange Blossom.

Not sure if this is the correct place for identifying pests, please let me know if it's elsewhere.

Just moved into a new house and there are some pests on the rhubarb. There are bigger ones that look like black ants which seem to be farming smaller things, also black. The smaller things are growing on what seem to be flowers the rhubarb is about to produce. They are on the new growth so might be sucking sap out.

Any idea what the pests are and how to deal with them?

Thank you.

Any idea what this could be, Looks like it came in on compost from Counsel a few years back. Plant IDer is says Privet or Chilian Mrytle.

Myrtle for me
