We bought our house last summer and a garden came with it. It's been a great experience. This year I found a bunch of plants growing on the east side of the fence. Any idea what they are? I didn't kow how to post a picture so here's a link to my FB piture:

Thanks. No flowers yet. We are in WI and are just starting to have things green up. I saw malva online and thought about that. They are planted very strategically and have old stalks near them.DoubleDogFarm wrote:[img]https://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h300/eric_wa/221617_2071320300786_1178220142_32559105_1741955_n.jpg[/img]
That could be many different plants. A flower would be more helpful. I will take a stab and call it hollyhock, malva.
Just guessing
