ID this vine type thing please
Hi all, could anyone advise what this vine thing this please? It came up uninvited last year and I lopped it off but has come back again this year. Full size leaves are about 6 inches 15 cm across.
Do I chop it or tie it up and make a feature of it ?

Do you like beer? It looks like a variety of hop, possibly golden hop.
Hmm, if so I had better sow some barley then...
Actually, not so sure on keeping it now, having read up elsewhere on the forum it seems to be a Marmite plant some seem to love it while others spend their time fighting it off as it a bit vigorous!
Make a feature of it. Let it climb up the fence.
Has it escaped from next doors garden?
I initially thought it had but no sign of one next door. We appear to have a corresponding clump of day lilys though.
I thought I had read the hop generally arrives via a root or rhizome, can it have been a seed?
