This plant with pretty green leaves is growing in a pot in which I had planted a fuchsia. I think I have lost the fuchsia, but is the invader worth keeping? I remember vaguely that it had small white flowers last year. TIA.

    Feverfew??
    Some say a weed, some a wild flower. I like them.

    Feverfew,  I  think.  They come with medium green or lime coloured leaves  single or double white flowers.
    A keeper in my opinion.  You can move it if it's  in the wrong place. 
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Yes, feverfew. I kept mine and it hasn't gone rampant. I like it too.

    I wonder if that's what this poster has -
    https://forum.gardenersworld.com/discussion/1071976/nigella-seedlings#latest

    It looked familiar, but I just couldn't place it. Long time since I've grown feverfew.  :)
    What do you all think?   
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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

    I thought the leaves were a bit too open in that one. @Fairygirl

    Feverfew,  I love it, definitely a keeper here.
