Hi all.
I have 2 of these little beasties in the garden and no idea what they are. both are very upright and about 4 years old from memory but as three re both in the same pots that i grew them in from seed i am not sure how big they will get nor what they are.
Thanks P

Leaves look a bit like hackberry (Celtis).

Thanks Terry. It could be but don't remember planting them. That's not unusual though! :roll:

I don't suppose you planted Hydrangeas? Yesterday I was helping my mum with hers and they look similar to me, especially with those pink petioles.
