Hi to the great and wise image

Found this growing in a bed and don't know what it is. If you could assist with identification that would be super. Pics below:

    Germander speedwell? Lovely out in the countryside; perhaps not in your garden Pandaimage

    I don't remember it last year. The flowers are pretty. Will hoik out though if we think it's invasive as the last plant I left (columbine) has gone mental, and I wish I'd got rid of it last year!

    I wish I had Aquilegias (columbines) randomly self seeding in my garden! I planted a few a couple of years ago and haven't seen them since image

    You make a valid point Mike. I am by no means a prissy gardener with neat soil round each plant, but I do need some room for those I've bought. I do like the wee blue flowers though so they'll probably stay for a while image

    They have a very short season and they're a lovely blue.

    Eradication would be near impossible for me so I've decided to like them.
