Open the image on photobucket, click it an then copy IMAGE LOCATION
On here click the image button and paste the link into the box, then ok.. it will come up with URL bars either side. remember the edit your privacy so all can see your images, not private
Some think its a type of lime tree, another dogwood, but I just cant find a concrete answer. It is in my front garden on the corner, Ive never seen fruits on it and it goes golden yellow and the leaves fall in winter.
Compare your tree with the information in this link https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/vi...british-trees/native-trees/small-leaved-lime/
I looked at Lime earlier, but discounted it because of the difference in the leaf veins. Perhaps that's not an important ID feature though, as some of yours on your later pics are slightly different. Have a look in particular in the section "Could be confused with" and check the hairs on the underside of the leaf.

Were the flowers white and sweet-smelling? If so, I think it's a Philadelphus (Orange Blossom). But I'd be surprised to find it in the hedgerow. It's a garden shrub.

upload your images to photobucket them click on the image, on the right under share this photo you click on the IMG box it will say copied, then click on the little insert image icon in the reply box (looks like a picture frame) right click in the URL box and when you post your reply it will show to us and you. xx hope this makes sense xxx

its brill to dry i got some yesterday and its dry today. i got loads more today and my raspberry leaves have already dried. Cant wait to go again tomorrow, although i nearly died with the heat, the sweat was dripping in my eyes :lol: My OH was laughing his head off on sunday because i went to pick my geraniums from where i always pick them and jumped back stamping my feet and shouting. Id only stood in an ants nest and they were all over me lol.. I left the geraniums where they was.

I found some knapweed as well today There wasn't a huge amount so I only took a little bit. I can remember where it was so hopefully a bit more will grow there soon.
Annoyingly they've been doing "maintenance" round my usual foraging haunt and a lot of the hedgerows, weeds and plants have been cut right back. Thank you very much Hackney Council :evil:
