    If you pinch it out, it will be better than leaving it to its own devices. Also, take off most of the seed pods to keep it flowering. One pod will give you all the seed you'll need. You may need to stake it as it grows.

    Hi,The one on the trellis may be Honeysuckle and the other is an Ash tree,the Ash looks to be close to the house I would advise moving it,they grow rather quick and large,you dont want root damage to the foundations of your house.:eek:

    Agree with Simon - cannot tell without closer inspection on the first - the second is what skippy said and best pulled unless that is where you want a tree growing. (they get big!)
