Plant identification needed

[russell]

Hi Everyone

I bought this plant from the bargain bucket at my local garden centre. All it said was that it was a perennial.

Can anyone id this for me please?

Thanks

Hmmm *scratches head* have a look at helichrysum varieties and see if any match.

I think it's Senecio greyi, Brachyglottis greyi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You beat me to it, Martin
Just what I was going to suggest - aka Daisy bush with yellow flowers.

That's the one. A lot of front gardens round here grow it.

Wow - thank you guys - it's going in the flower section of my allotment

Can anyone identify this? I'm not sure if it's a flower or a weed, but it's popping up all round my flower beds. It's around 6 inches (at the moment) with distinctive purple marks on the leaves. The leaves are in clusters of 3 and 4.

Oxalis tetraphylla

Its an Oxalis - often sold as tiny corms/tubers in garden centres/pound shops. Should have pink flowers.

Thanks Fleurisa and VC - it looks quite pretty so I'll leave it.

Once you've got it it's really hard to get rid of, so you might as well enjoy it.
