    I think a photo taken of the whole plant would be helpful


    In the sticks near Peterborough
  • Sorry wasnt the best of photos. hopefully the below will help! Flower bud has started to open, flowers look quite small.
  • Looks like Lysimachia vulgaris 'Garden Loosestrife',..a perennial.

    The petals (and the leaves) do not look quite like those of Lysimachia vulgaris. It would help if the OP would post really clear, well-focused photos of that plant. ;)

    I wonder if that's Guizotia abyssinica, from the Nyger seed

  • Thanks, been Googling and googling and couldn't find what it is, certainly looks like Guizotia abyssinica  or Niger plant. Thanks very much!
