Title: Seedling ID please
Post by: Georgie on May 25, 2009, 10:17:58
I found this in one of my window boxes.  It's tiny at the moment, about 2cm high with leaves less than 1cm across.  Any ideas please?

Looks like it might want to be a gooseberry when it grows up...  :)

Really?  Can't think where it's come from if that's the case.  I thought it might be a tree of some description.

Right oh, thanks.  :)

I'll grow it on and post a pic again when it's bigger.  Never grown a Gooseberry before, how exciting.   ;D
