Angus,
United Kingdom 
Plant ID Please :) Bought a packet of 'Digitalis (white)' from somewhere (probably Ebay again...grrr) and they turned out to be this. Most of them quickly outgrew their spaces and were binned, but this one was shoved in the corner near the bin and the mint and it has really shot up this year (second year). No flowers but the foliage is evergreen, and it gets more tree/triffid-like every day! About 5 feet high now!

Agree and I'd be sending to the Council for composting not putting in my compost!

Do you recognise it MG? It looks familiar to me, but I can't put my finger on it (so to speak!).

The leaves are like Abutilon Suntense!

Hi Karen, I'm in the same position as you, should know what it is, but it just wont register, I agree the leaves are very similar to Abutilon x suntense, but these look larger, sorry I can't help, Derek.

Thanks Derek! :)

I've been googling Abutilon vitifolium and it really does look like it.
