Can anyone name this weed for me, please. It grows prolifically in our garden and between the paving slabs. Leaves are sometimes a deep purple-green. Thanks.

Hi. It's Oxalis. Easily spreads by little bulbils - so hard to get out completely!
Yellow Wood Sorrel, Oxalis stricta.
Looks more like Oxalis corniculata, but whatever the name it is a terrible weed. One of the most widespread too, on every continent except Antarctica.
Roundup if you use it, flame gun if you don't.
TMany thanks to all those who replied. They are certainly little devils to uproot!
