    I was going to say Agrostemma but the leaves are much thicker than on mine.

    Well, I guess I’m just going to leave it and see what happens, it if it is corncockle it looks like a lovely flower 😀
    I’ve no idea what I’m doing.

    I think from your pic. it might be a pink or carnation. Did you plant one and think it had died? Or even forgotten you had planted one, It is difficult to tell from the pic.

    @Joyce Goldenlily it’s definitely not something I’ve planted.

    Then it is not a garden pink.

    I guess I’ll just leave it and see if it flowers, I’ll post pictures of and when it does. 

    Are we taking bets? 😀

    Hi all

    It’s been a month and now this is what this seedling has become. Any ideas? Do I need to yank it?

    Thanks!
