A couple of seeds came from Madeira where I was on holiday. I picked the seeds up in the hotel car park. One of the plants looks like it could be a weed. Can anybody help identify them please? They are all in three inch pots. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: DSCF0458.jpg | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=15625| |Filename: DSCF0459.jpg | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=15626| |Filename: DSCF0461.jpg | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=15627| |Filename: DSCF0462.jpg | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=15628| |Filename: DSCF0464.jpg | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=15629| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+- Not at all sure about these so suggestions only! 1 Could be a Catalpa bignonoides 2 Tetrapanax? 3 Italian parsley? Doubtful! 4 Don't know 5 Sorrel -- Sacha 'Buy plants online, including rare and popular plant varieties from Hill House Nursery, mail order plant specialist' (http://www.hillhousenursery.com) South Devon 'Help for Heroes - UK Military Charity' (http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk) Thanks for the suggestions Sacha. The 3rd isn't parsley or any herb for that matter. It's tasteless. I haven't tasted the 5th one yet. I will do so later. Not sure about the 1st one being Catalpa...thingy. The leaves aren't quite the right shape unless there are a lot of variations. It is growing fast as are the others. I know it isn't Morning Glory now as it isn't a climber. The stem is stiff. The lookalike parsley isn't growing fast so maybe it won't be a big plant. Still not had a definite ID on any of them. They need to grow a bit. Best to get more photos in a few weeks and post again. It's certainly turning into a mystery for me. I'm a bit nervous of number 4 and what to do with it. I don't want to destroy it as it might be a very nice plant that isn't cannabis. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ I can't believe that you need to throw any of them away. Even if one of them did turn out to be Cannabis sativa, you have plenty of evidence that you've tried to establish its identity properly. And imo, none of them are that. And no, your first plant isn't morning glory which is Ipomoea and which we grow here as a perfectly legitimate climber. I'm starting to think of Thunbergia, perhaps gregorrii. I think you'd help yourself a lot if you took some of them suggestions given here and fed them into Google images. You don't comment on Numbers 2 or 5, so your own opinion on a Google image search may be of use to you. It will be fascinating to get the ID on all these just out of curiosity. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |
