Last summer I threw some seeds around and I have several of these lurking in the border . . . . Can someone identify if it is a weed or not as they are starting to thrive and I will need to remove if they need to come up.
Hi panda have sympathy with you I've spent the afternoon sorting out a big border and found three healthy plants I thought were hardy geraniums I purchased last year so I lifted them and replanted with FB&B and fresh compost pleased they had survived the winter
It is always worth keeping a ragwort in any 'wild' area you may have for the caterpillers of the Cinnabar moth to feed on. Worth reading up on though as ragwort is poisonous to some animals.
There are many words to describe my neighbours Dorset, but cattle isn't one of them I'm ok as I live in the middle of a city When pulled up it will be consigned to the green/brown bin. Thanks for the info HG - I did think it looked quite pretty but would be in the wrong place in the garden.

When himself checked they are buttercups whoops
I was out looking for my Snakes Head Frittilias only to find a positive sea of Hardy Geraniums , no sign of my snake heads
If it's ragwort please don't chuck it over the hedge/fence if there's cattle or horses next door or likely to be
