Plant ID

[EdithGrantham]

Any ideas what this is please? I didn't plant it and it came up last year, I left it in to see what would happen, not a lot last year but this year it has buds on.

Sisyrinchium striatum?

Flower spike wrong. Sisyrhynchium has a cluster of buds

I was going to say it doesn't look quite like it'll get those flowers but the leaves definitely look right

Looks a bit like my gladiolus buds before they shoot up to 4ft high!

I would say @Valkirie's ident is correct, the inflorescence just hasn't expanded yet

I know MN has a love hate relationship with Picture This app but above is what it says it is!

My Sisyrinchium striatum look just like that at the moment

Thanks all, we'll go with the ID @Valkirie has given and see what happens!

Yes, Sisyrinchium striatum. Mine has now flowered yellow flowers, but looked like yours last week.

Obviously I’m not interested enough in mine to look at it that early in flower development!

Sisyrinchium - mine are just coming up and look exactly like that.

😆 to be fair it's only because it's self set that I'm interested as to what it is, I'm always wary of whether anything I haven't planted is going to spread and take over!
