        I grew some green beans a few months ago and it looks just like them.

            I would say sunflower too, esp since it looks like a sunflower case holding the leaves together!

              Hi Mudmonkey and welcome to the Vine. Agree with the others at the moment - could be a sunflower.

                Yep, black sunflower, the sort you get in wild bird food (black from the colour of the seed, not the flower!)

                      Let it grow on a bit - it does look like a sunflower. We have had all sorts of stuff coming from wild bird food - memorably in the Olden Days, Cannabis. They soon stopped putting that in!

                        The seed itself def looks like a sunflower

                          Do you still get it in packets of Trill? Used to end up with it growing on rubbish tips where people had thrown the muck away after cleaning out the bird cage.

                            It looks squash-y to me.

                            If it grow straight up really really quickly, then sunflower.

                            If it doesn't, then some sort of squash.

                            Take another pic in a week and lets see the difference.

                              I'd got for sunflower first choice, could be a squash (corgette, pumpkin) with a grubby seed?
