Does anybody know what type of plant this is. It has begun to grow in different areas on one bank.
Many thanks.

    Looks rather like celandine but I thought it would be nearly over by now.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Looks like Lesser Celandine to me too.
    How can you lie there and think of England

    Dare I ask, is that good or bad?
    Thanks 👍

    Some people think it is a problem if they have it their borders, as they see it as invasive, but it disappears after flowering. 
    We still have loads in flower here as it's a bit later for us. Lovely along all the verges and hedgerows, and in shady spots when very little else grows.  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    In London. Keen but lazy.
