I have quite a lot of Herb Robert, which apparently shouldn't be grown in the garden. There are also a couple of plants about to flower which I think are poppies. Also, a leftover potato has grown this year - is that a weed? I actively plant seeds of wildflowers such as cornflower and foxglove, which some people may still regard as weeds despite the recent interest in wild gardening. A few years ago I had a garden where ground elder grew, which many regard as a pernicious weed, but I thought it looked pretty when flowering behind the pink cultivated geraniums.
Sow thistle. I have a tortoise who loves it so I'm always delighted when it arrived in the garden. It never lasts long as it's promptly eaten!
I had this at one of my old homes, along with a path full of dandelions. As I dislike using weedkiller, I resigned myself to removing them constantly, until the rabbit got out and demolished them.
Just posted on another thread but my fav has to be ragged robin. It’s pretty pink flowers look lovely bobbing around and the bees love it. When it self seeds it can be a pain popping up in unexpected places but I let it be and just cut off the seas heads before they get a chance to spread further.
Marne la vallée, basically just outside Paris 🇫🇷, but definitely Scottish at heart.
Some flowers I don't like and some are thugs. Some weeds I like. Some are thugs. And some are just in the wrong place. VB is becoming a bit of a weed in parts of my garden but it's a flower in others. 'Weedy' is a misnomer. Most weeds are pretty vigorous. But I suppose you never see the weedy weeds because they don't grow🤔
