    A self seeded thing I found in the greenhouse and potted it up. Looks evergreen.

    And a second one, this thing sat miserably in a pot outside for the last year or so, then suddenly it bloomed!

    Balloon Flower / Campanula

    Interesting, my mother said it looks like a campanula and I said that the buds were like balloons. That makes sense!

    I've no idea. No camelias nearby so that would be strange, but cool. Looks a bit like griselinia but with more tender leaves.

    Thought that too but leaf has some serration which griselinia wouldn't have.


    Maybe a Laurel or Bay even...

    The first one looks like a citrus of some sort.

    Pheasant berry would be great, I was actually looking for one. Was wondering why stems were different colours....2 different plants would make sense!
