Hello, could you please ID the plant. It started to grow next to my anemone, but leaves are not the same and shoots are quite vigorous.  THANKS!

    That looks like a Hazel sapling … could a squirrel or a Jay have buried a nut there in the autumn?

    I agree @Dovefromabove
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Thanks, @Dovefromabove! Yes, there is a squirrel living in the willow tree next to my garden, so I assume it did the crime! lol
    I think I should leave that those saplings alone and will replant the anemone somewhere else.

    Do you want a hazel tree there? Is there enough room? I think I would have dug out the sapling and kept the anemone.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Snap!  It’ll grow into a huge bush taking up several square metres of ground and reaching 12’ tall and at least the same across.
