    Hi

    We have a strange plant that nobody has been able to identify. I wondered if anyone has any ideas please? We think kit may have grown from something in the birde feeders as there was mixed bird feed above the area. Its growing in an area of Suffolk in the UK about 5 miles from the sea, relatively frost free and in a well drained but not dry soil. Any ideas??

    Best pull it out, one or two species in the genus are somewhat invasive as weeds in Britain.
