    Hi

    Can anyone tell me what this is? It's seeded myself in a tub in my garden and I repotted it. Next door has one growing right next to the fence and it is quite attractive so I will plant out when large enough.

    Thank you.

    A Cotoneaster, either Cotoneaster bullatus or one of its close relatives. This is one of the larger-growing species, it'll get to 3-5m tall eventually so it'll want plenty of space.

    Thank you, that's great. When it's big enough I intend to plant it out next to a fence to block neighbours out, so the size won't be a problem.
