    Here are three plants I dont know about.

    1. This is a plant about 3 foot high that seems to self seed like mad and has a big root, lovely though.

    2. This is a gorgeous small plant in my plot which has lobed leaves that are dark around the edges.

    3. This is a lovely climber I found on someones wall and I'd like to know what it is.

    Incidently, euphorbia sap is an irritant which should not be taken lightly. Wash it off should you get it on your skin, and keep well away from eyes and other tender body parts.
