This has grown for the last four years out of the bottom of the front garden brick wall. It gets to about 3 foot tall, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was a creeper, I tied it up this year as when it grows across the path it gets trampled. Any idea what it is?

I suggested in the gallery, before reading this, that it might be lucerne - however, that doesn't grow to this length. Something of that nature, perhaps an escaped garden pea variety ... but no tendrils ..... ? Sorry.

There are no tendrils, but I have looked at images of Lucerne and it looks a pretty good suggestion to me and here it says it grows upto 3 foot

Thanks Paul

Clearly the stuff I remember was a bit wimpish! It does look a good fit though ....
