    I found this one while weeding and just doesn't look like anything I sowed.
    And it's the only one, so it can't be a weed.
    But what is it?
    As I see it, the leaves are kinda grey/yellow and shows fine hairs on them.

    Hmmm... gaillardia got rounded small leaves at first. And anyway, after a while the plant grows. This one has been this small for a long time...

    The only 2 plants I know that have fuzzy leaves like that, are lambs ear, and rose campion, could it be one of those?

    Definitely worth a wait till it develops into something more recognizable, Dusty Miller might be possible but I think the ends of the leaves should be more rounded.

    I just don't know. It's still quite the same size. Not doing too well. Leaves starting to die. Guess it's lack of water? Most plants suffering now :(
