I'm surprised nobody has come up with a definite id for the plant, though. 
 Perhaps I have beaten the panel :D :D

I discovered what it was...scabious, I had forgotten I had put some there last year

Could be Oxalis.

Does it have long pointed seed pods that explode when you touch them when ripe?

Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Hi
I took a small allotment over in June. This is my first time growing so learning as I go along.

I need help to identify these plants.
They are popping up on a section of the allotment. I've walked around the site, other plots don't seem to have this plant.

Is it veg or weed ???

Thanks
Dan

They are mostly annual weeds, just hoe them off - but the spiky plant is marestail :ohmy:
A horrible perennial weed, you can only hope to keep that one under control, as it's all but impossible to get rid of it  :(

This has come up in what was the onion bed... almost looks like it might be something worthwhile. Any ideas? Its about a foot and a half high.

Looks like a Buddleia to me, nice for the butterflies but might attract the white ones too!!!

Is it a bit woody?

Maybe a buddleia seedling?

[Or is it a sage-type]

Woody - hmm not sure, didn't think to touch it. But there are a number of buddleia on the site and it does look like one.
I've got two enormous ones in my front garden but don't think I want one on my plot. Foreign invaders and whatnot...  ;)
I shall hoik it out.

Cheers,
Balders

This has quite a presence on the plot I'm clearing, it has very small flowers that are pink when closed. It seems to have a greater presence underground than above, however I'm not sure if that's an aspect of the plant or if it was dug in when the beds were turned over before I arrived.

My main concern is whether it will grow from pieces as there is more small bits about then I would like.
