  • Question

    The plant that is growing In my garden I think is wild because I did not plant it there. It's about 20 cm at the moment but I'm sure will grow bigger because it's just come up about a month ago. It's placed in a flower bed a right behind it is a fence and it get sunshine from about 9 o'clock to 5 depending when it's sunny.it is the plant my finger is on. This plant is in Ireland. Thank you.

    Answer

    Dear Amandakidd365, I'm sorry, but I do not recognize the plant you have posted images of. Go Botany is a website dedicated to wild plants of New England (northeastern North America). While New England and parts of Europe do share remarkably similar plants (which means that sometimes I can help people in Europe), in this case I cannot. I would recommend that you contact someone at the National Botanic Gardens in Dublin (email: matthew.jebb@opw.ie) to help you with your plant question. There will be someone there who can assist you. Good luck.
