Thanks Spritz, I'll just check if it's an evil weed or a tame wild flower lol. Off to google. I wondered at first if it was a particularly dainty variety of corydalis! 8~/

It's pretty and it has medicinal uses - I'd plant it ;-) but only use it after a bit of research it seems like powerful stuff.

Not an evil weed, Ba, its not very invasive and it is easy to pull out.

It is a lovely British native [wildflower]. My mum loved it and grew it in her garden.

Wow. I think i've got another one coming Sbg, might have come in the new topsoil do you think? :-)

That's very possible, but mine just grow in one particular area of the garden - no idea why.

At least it's not like when I asked an early question about being over run by celandine and someone suggested I must need it. When I googled it, I found the common name was PILEWORT and it was a treatment for said condition ! :-))

LOL!

The mind boggles about how you actually 'use' the celandines for that affliction, Ba......LOL.

Next question
Ba - it's a weed, and I think it's called 'Fumitory'. I'm always mistaking them for Californian Poppy seedlings until the flowers appear!
