It's difficult to be 100% because of the angle of the photograph, but its a weed, and I cannot remember its name for the life of me...

I don't know why I'm unable to remember the name of this, its not like this isn't a question that's asked very often... I've written it down in my notebook now, ready for next time!

Thank you for your help.I love Euphorbias! Just had 5 seedlings delivered this morning from Sarah Raven of E. Oblongata. I will look it up & decide if I want to take the risk of leaving it.

I like Euphorbias too - but the caper spurge is classed as a weed, isn't particularly attractive, and where there's one this year, there'll be lots more all over the place next year. Up to you though...
