    Good morning. My mother's worried about a plant she's just spotted in her garden. Thinks it may be a tree from next door that's seeded. Can anyone confirm her suspicions?

    Her grateful thanks for any replies.

    I think Silver surfer (as usual :snork: ) has nailed it. I wouldn't mind a tree like that.

    I agree that Erysimum Bowles is a good bet. They have always been in my garden and seem to flower continually. They become a bit leggy and woody after a few years - but are very easy to propagate from cuttings. [​IMG]
