    Plant identification

    Hi
    Apologies,This is not fruit or veg related put down the pitch forks .
    Can anyone help with the name of this plant.
    It's at least 15 years old and It has masses of white flowers during July.



    My old dear said its a type of hosta but I think she's having a haver.

    Thanks.

        Sounds like a hebe - as LottieD said. A photo of the flowers and leaves would help!

                This has appeared among my strawberries. Could it be a birch tree sapling?
                Oops, would help if I actually added a photo!!

                    Thanks Lottie, do you think it would survive being potted up just now...I have a place in mind for it if it is a tree?

                      It looks very birch like to me. As for surviving, there is only one way to find out. It may sulk a while

                          Looks like it from the leaves emerging from its buds.
                          I work very hard so please don't expect me to think as well!
