Beautiful foliage, but is it a weed?

    The top one is aquilegia, a perennial, should be flowering soon although I'm not sure about the strange 'tops' in the second pic..

    I think they’re the same and could be buttercup or similar

    Thank you. The pictures are of the same plant and I don’t think it’s aquilegia. I’ll check some pictures of buttercup.

    I don’t think it’s a buttercup either.

    Its not buttercup after seeing the close up, it’s definitely not Aquilegia.

    Thank you, Lyn. Nutcutlet has identified many of my plants in the past. I enjoy checking the ID threads just to learn more about plants.

    I think it could be a Thalictrum. (Meadow Rue) :)

    Good spot Fritillary. Starts off looking a bit like maidenhair fern. I think you're right!

    I agree with Thalictrum.
