Has anyone else ever had plants turn up planted in their garden that they were thinking of getting?
Was thinking of growing some comfrey, it appears.
Thinking of planting a clematis in my hedge, there it appears pretty much right where I wanted it.

Better have a word with Fairygirl. It sounds like she's been waving her wand again
Haha, no, but do you think if i wish for things they might magically appear!
I've had plants turning up that I wasn't thinking of getting. Where did the vinca that's going mad come from? Acanthus mollis just appeared, but I like it. It must have been planted here a long time ago because the garden was a farmyard once. It wasn't here at first. Also Phlomis just turned up. Quite a big clump now.
Well I never though about getting a Chinese quince (Chaenomoles cathayensis) but it arrived anyway! Much taller than the more common Chaenomeles japonica. Lethal thorns on it so I need to tie it back from the path or it will do major damage to any passing human. The fruit makes lovely quince type jelly and cheese though .
lol verdun, sneaking quietly in the darkness, planting random stuff in folks gardens by torch-light.........Verdun, stealth like ninja lol
Bit worried about the 666 after your name Millers

Nowt to do with me I'm afraid fidget - if I was that good I'd have my whole garden done by now
Steephill - you can send that jaggy quince to me- I have just the place for it.....several in fact!
Verdun doesn't plant stuff- he just eats any fruit that's about - he's a very greedy boy....he's even been in my fridge.
or is that my children...
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
