Last weekend I came across this happy little fellow... and have no idea what it is. I think its a rose mallow, I think my Dad planted it, but I can't be sure. These spy-like weeds that pose as flowers are rampant in my garden and since I'm not great a t keeping track of what I have planted I'm always skeptical when I see something like this.
The real problem is I don't have a great knowledge of what plants look like before they have flowered, when they are very young in spring, many a time I have mercilessly uprooted a young flowerling in early spring I planted with the utmost care and doting the year before. I almost pulled out my Dictamus for chirssake! The coveted Gas plant it took me years to acquire!
So I'll have to keep an eye on this guy, and see what ensues...
Here are some prime examples of young plants I didn't recognize earlier in the year:
Young Columbine
Young Dictamus
Young Toad Lily
Young Campanula
