    Goat willow often pops-up in my blueberry pots and often goes unnoticed for quite a while - it's almost as if the blummin' stuff has the ability to mimic the leaves of whichever plant it decides to invade! :D

    Yes! Just planted out some blackberry plants that have been hanging around all year at the opposite end of the garden (oops) and found more in there.

    I’ve just been down the garden and noticed Enchanters nightshade sometimes has stipules too!   :/   But I am still going with Goat willow.
