What is it?

I'm sure I'll kick myself, I just can't conjure up a name for this. It's a seedling that has appeared in one of my pots.
So, is it weed or desirable? Thanks!

I think this is a Welsh poppy. These appear everywhere in my garden and the leaves look very similar.

It would be wonderful if it is a Welsh poppy! I'll keep you all updated as it grows - I need to move it into a separate pot, at the moment it's with a bearded iris which isn't strong enough for the garden.

Think Andrews right I thought it was the Welsh Mountain Poppy...yellow flowers.

yes, yellow poppy. I have a few and try to get rid of them. one woman's meat!

If it is Mec. cambrica be sure to dead head regularly or you will have a garden full of yellow poppies in no time :-)
