Hi all, 

I hope you are all enjoying the warmer weather. Let's hope it continues. 

I am in a new garden this spring and there are some weird and wonderful plants around that I am not familiar with (some I think might actually be weeds, but not sure). 

Can you help? Photos are below.

1) I was about to pull this out, because I think it's a weed -but want to double check!

2) Again, possible weed?

3) Not sure about this one

4) This is a fairly small plant sprouting up near a west-facing border

5) This plant has popped up ALL OVER the garden, so hopefully it's a nice one.

    Thanks everyone - that was super quick and there is no way I would have been able to work that out myself! You are the best! image

    Looks like the Hollyhock is suffering from rust.

  • i have a Hollyhock how do you cure rust or do i just dig it up and buy a new one

    Gosh that was quick! I saw the photos, had my answers all ready, wound down and there was Dove's post with my answers!
