    There should be a sticky thread for this kind of query:) seems they pop up a lot.

    I had this guy planted in a window box and he took off but I never kept a record of what I'd put in that box. It could possibly be strawberry or tomato but I really don't know. Hes flying along though. Twice the size he was 2 weeks ago. Any help greatly appreciated. There's nothing else like it in my garden.

    Really? Ah bugger. Is it useful for anything? I don't see where it came from. There are no others of it in my garden. Weird.

    As it's flowering already, I'd rip it out quickly or that final statement may change ;)

    Me again. I'm pretty sure these two are a veg but after the chickweed debacle I'm taking nothing for granted. Anyone know what these two could be?
