Just wanted to check a few things and thought my wise friends out there could help me. 

1) This is a foxglove isn't it ?  It is a from last year's seed so I assume it will just stay like this this year and flower next year ?  Is that correct.  Bizarre how I have such a variety of size of foxglove seedlings when they came from one of 3 plants I bought last year.

 2) Russian Vine & Honeysuckle

Last year I cleared a load of russian vine.  Is anyone able to confirm if this is new shoots of russian vine (1st picture) and the other photo is honeysuckle and not more russian vine (picture 2)

 Picture 1 - Russian vine ?

 Picture 2 - Young honeysuckle ?

    1, you're right , a foxglove

    2. I can only see laurel and honeysuckle

    3. honeysuckle

    When I enlarge these they are enormous and I can only see a bit at a time but I didn't see any russian vine

    the tree. Is that now? I wouldn't expect to see a red cherry or any other fruit yet.

    I can't enlarge them at all and there's no picture of a red cherry or tree image

    Yes the tree has those red things on now ?  Just noticed them today.  I've made this post smaller, so will put the image back up on another post.

    well that is good then, that means both images are honeysuckle doesn't it.  Will nurture that and get that to grow and make sure that russian vine doesn't come back.

    Russian vine doesn't know when to stop but I don't think it's that difficult to get rid of compared to some of its relatives
