September 2, 2012Q.planting sorrel
I have Sorrel seedlings now (September). Can I grow on in pots then plant out in the spring. I do not have a heated greenhouse just normal one. I live in East Anglia, which is mild in winter usually.

May 28, 2015Q.Wood Sorrel
Is there any reason I can't use the wood sorrel (five-petal yellow flowers) as a ground cover in my garden? If I simply leave it alone in the garden, will I regret it?

Certified ExpertA.I think you might regret it. Oxalis corniculata L. is not a plant you can simply leave alone in the garden because it is very invasive and difficult to remove once it takes hold. You won't be able to contain it just to the borders of your garden. For more information, please visit the following link:

May 9, 2016Q.identification of plant in our garden
I wonder if you can let me know what the plant in the attached photograph is, as I have no idea whether it's a weed or garden plant. It seems to really like our garden and grows profusely every summer and looks very pretty.
