Hi All
does anybody recognise this plant.  It either came from the wild flower seed I planted last year or it’s a self set.  This one is now well over 8 foot tall and there are others shooting up.




Sorry but I can’t seem to make the images sit the right way up.

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

    Having looked at pictures it could be wild chicory.  Maybe just a monster variant of some kind though, as it’s well over 8 foot and there are others in my garden at 6 foot already.

    There's a fair few plant I.D. apps if you wanted to try them. They're not as friendly and informative as this forum mind. 😉

    For anybody interested, it has now started flowering and it is Chicory - who knew it could grow to over 8ft tall!
