    I once found one growing in a bag of compost that had been left open over winter (back in the days when we all used compost containing some peat). I potted it up and gave it to Nutcutlet who has damp areas alongside her ponds.

    @Alisonjayne are all the plants growing flat to the ground like the one in the photo?
    yes, they are all low lying.

    Thinking of @nutcutlet reminded me … I think it’s one of the Fleabanes … a native plant but quite rarely seen nowadays. 

    Either Pulicaria vulgaris or
    P. dysenterica   … Nutcutlet will know which. 
    Looking at images of Pulicaria vulgaris, the flowers definitely fit the bill, but the leaves are very different, still confused!

    They're not plants I know well and I managed to kill the one @Dovefromabove gave me but my money is on P. dysenterica.

    Not oxe eye daisy but agree it looks more like the fleabane group.
