4 mystery plants - help please!
Would love to know what these plants are. Any ideas anyone???
http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis1.jpg This one seems to be a tree cutting - I tries to get a bit of the bark on the photo http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis2.jpg This is a really bad photo but if you go to the bottom its a bit clearer. It has an unusual smell when the leaves are crushed. Its about 2 ft and it wasn't there lastyear. http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis3.jpg This one comes up every year but I've never noticed any flowers on it. It grows about 2-3ft http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis4.jpg This one I would love to find out about. It is probably a bulb. You can see its leaf on the left. Its flower head is about 2.5 to 3 inch across ) Lorraine |

It has an unusual smell when the leaves are crushed. Its about 2 ft and it wasn't there lastyear. Feverfew? White daisy flowers when it comes out - can be single of double. Seeds itself around with abandon. THere's a yellow leaved form which is even nicer. Take the flowering stem out once it's flowered and leave a neat little clump of foliage . Treat it as one of those things you leave around to fill gaps but pull up if you want to grow something there. http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis3.jpg This one comes up every year but I've never noticed any flowers on it. It grows about 2-3ft Possibly paeony. They're pernicketty things and won't flower unless they're happy where they are. http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis4.jpg This one I would love to find out about. It is probably a bulb.

Pretty well behaved and well worth having around. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

I didn't know that it was a perennial though. http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis4.jpg This one I would love to find out about. It is probably a bulb. You can see its leaf on the left.

I think the second one is feverfew. It stinks like heck, and has a white
daisy in summer. I call it a weed, but I've seen it for sale in garden centres and I think it can be used as a medicinal herb. "GoldDustRhiannon" wrote in message ...

I'm basing this on the texture of the bark and the paired leaves. The stems and leaves are usually a bit yellower, but I've got one where they are that darker colour, and they do take easily from cuttings. Yes - I'd go along with that. I knew it was familiar but I couldn't remember what! http://www.members.aol.com/golddustr...Whatsthis3.jpg This one comes up every year but I've never noticed any flowers on it. It grows about 2-3ft If Kay's wrong and it's not a peony, I'd guess some sort of damp-loving buttercup Not segmented enough leaves or marsh marigold type thing. Marsh marigolds have circular leaves like giant celandines. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

This is a really bad photo but if you go to the bottom its a bit clearer. It has an unusual smell when the leaves are crushed. Its about 2 ft and it wasn't there lastyear. this looks like feverfew - it has pretty daisy like flowers - some people call them weeds but I really like them and have planted lots - it is easy to grow and looks pretty for ages. If you cut it back in autumn when it dies down it will come back next year. Sometimes if you cut the flowers off after the flower dies it will reflower. Hayley |
