  Hi Mary, it came up in my veg patch🤔 No way could i remember planting it ?? I thought it maybe a poppy but I've never seen a poppy plant so large. 
  I think it's lovely, so I'll leave it alone and replant it in the garden for next year.
  thanks for your reply.

  It's an annual, so collect the seedpods when they go dry & brown and sow where you want them next year.
  

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
