    Hello everyone,

    Please tell me this thing growing out of the wall is not japanese knotweed!

    And does anyone know what this is? It's been hidden by my lupins which has allowed it to get well established. I'm not sure if it's something I've planted and forgotten about or if it's a big weed! IMG_20170521_193440.jpg IMG_20170521_193444.jpg IMG_20170521_193452.jpg

    Thank you :)

    pics one two and three look like an ash tree seedling.
    Four five and six are something different, but none of those are Jap Knot weed.

      I think the second plant is an ox-eye daisy. It's a wild flower, let it flower and it will happily seed itself and come back next year if you're lucky.

        Yes, I'd go with ash and an ox-eye daisy (Leucanthemum)....possibly a garden variety rather than the wild one.
