Yet another Plant ID

Recommended Posts

As I have been `told` to clear out some of the extensive collection of my books, on the basis that the shelves are bowing under the weight, I am offering a freebie of the book `Snipe & Woodcock - Sport & Conservation` by Colin McKelvie.

All you have to do is identify the attached weed that is taking over a small part of my garden. The first to do this will receive a copy of the book. First to respond on PW (not by PM) will get the book. 

I am afraid that Wooder who correctly identified a previous plant, even without the photo but on description alone and Tightchoke who very narrowly beat JDog the to correct answer are in this instance exempt.

Well done  Walshie - Euphorbia Lathyris also known as Caper Spurge.

Send me your name and address by PM and I`ll get the book in the post tomorrow. I don`t think 117B Wales High Street above the chip shop would reach you.

I would add that being the gent that he is, JDog gracefully declined to answer as he remembers it from a previous post and knew it anyway.

Wow!. I've never won anything before and I fear I haven't this time. Wilksy II said moleplant as I was typing my answer. That is another name for caper spurge, so I'm runner-up.

How very magnanimous of you in defeat Walshie. I had to google that and you`re quite right it`s also known as Moleplant so Wilksy 11 is indeed the winner. So if Wilksy 11 cares to PM me his name and address I will do the honours.

Think nothing of it.

It is about time we met up. Haven't you got any pigeons?

Defeat is such a harsh word. I prefer second winner.
