    No idea what it is but pretty though. A weed is only a plant in the wrong place! So if you like it keep it. You would be amazed at the plants they sell out here that are thought of as weeds in the UK, and they charge a lot for them.

                Very pretty! I've never seen it before, and on looking it up, I see it is becoming rare, as it is an arable weed and gets sprayed out. Also likes peaty soil, which there's not so much of in Leics. And likes growing with root crops, so happy with the potatoes then.

                  A couple of years ago I got a huge (3ft) hemp plant on the lotty. It came from parrot seed in the compost bin

                  The first frost killed it
