This triffid appeared from the bottom of my compost bin, leaves a bit mildewed but what is it?
East Dorset, new (to me) rather neglected garden.

    Probably comes from seeds you have thrown on the compost. Have you had pumpkins? If not could be a type of courgette.

    A bit big and wrong shape for a courgette? I now remember throwing out a pumpkin. It's exciting anyway.

    Nice triffid.:) the fruit and flowers look identical to my pumpkin. Is it several plants?
