would anyone know what this plant is?i thought it was a stinging neetle but there's no stinging.it came from the homemade compost so could be anything.could it be a raspberry plant?

Sorry, but your photo didn't go through right it seems. Could it be a dead nettle? Slightly furry foliage, but otherwise very similar?

could be a briar blackberry or bramble, check and see if any thorns are present on stem, not a strawberry.

no thorns on it at all in fact the stem is as smooth as a babies bottom. Smile

looks like meadow sweet from the picture any chance of another pic and where is it growing eg conditions.

haven't got another pic at the moment as camera run out.
it has grown from our own compost in the greenhouse so most days warm/humid conditions.
