I have attached a photo of a plant found in a pot in my garden that I don't remember planting, can anyone identify it please? :)

    Have you got a bird feeder nearby? It looks like wheat to me.

    Not wheat with those awns ... either barley or rye. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Nice to see you've enjoyed the banter @mj10364 - not everyone does  ;)

    At least you know it's not harmful too.  :)

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
