Ok, Bratti, if it’s marijuana, do you want to buy some or can you push a bit for me?

lt would be great if you and Mups are right as l love Rhododendrons and Azaleas. About three of mine have died for no reason lately but this mystery plant wasn’t growing anywhere near them.

The pest control man told me not to feed the birds as it attracted the rats.

Re: I Don’t Suppose Anyone Knows What This Plant Is?
Art, can I have some info please?How did you come by this plant?
Did you dig it up from somewhere, and pot it up yourself?
If so, when was that?
I ask because I am wondering how long it has been potted. Was it only this year or has it over-wintered in that pot?
Has it grown much, or was it that size in the first place?
At the mo, I still think it looks like the Rhodedenron/Azalea family, but I'm still thinking as something is not quite right.
One last question please.
What is it planted in? - Garden soil? Multipurpose? Ericaceous? John Innes? Or none of those?
Thanks.
P.S. You say three other of your Rhode's are dying.
That seems too much of a coincidence to lose three together.
May I ask whether they in tubs or in the ground, and are they young plants or huge old established ones please?
Ta muchly.

I found it growing in the soil in my garden, probably, a year ago. It was tiny.
I dug it up, put it in Bloom’s the garden centre, own brand multipurpose compost, in a pot.
I kept it in the greenhouse but recently, l took it out to keep it nearer the house so that l could water and feed it regularly. It seems to have grown really quickly to the size it is now.
The Rhododendrons and Azalias that have died were in the ground, in an area where there are lots of trees behind them.
Two were here when l came to live here. The lady who planted them. had lived here for about ten years. The other three were ones l planted within the last fourteen years. I saved another, a small one and that’s in a pot in the greenhouse.
Alongside them is a ‘Harry Lauder’s Walking Stick’ Corylus Hazel that has really gone a bit wild. Whether or not, that has sapped all the goodness out of the ground, l don’t know?
I hope this can help you, to help me!
PS. I have just found a pic of when they were alive...
