Can someone please identify this plant and tell me if friend or foe. It is popping up all over my garden and I didn't plant it.Am guessing some kind of geranium but it is prolific!
Thanks for responding. They are lots of individual plants in that photo but I have little individual plants all over the garden. I have never planted love in a mist to my knowledge.
Do they come out of the ground easily or are they deep rooted?
It's not a geranium, Which annuals did you have last year? I suggested love in a mist as it's prolific self seeded but there are probably others similar
I just pulled a few up and to be honest quite deep rooted. 6 inches maybe. A couple broke as I pulled even though quite gentle so well stuck in! Am an amateur gerdener so last year had all sorts of annuals. Marigolds, petunias, non that looked like thsee which I recall. Am loathe to pull it up if will be something lovely but am also conscious it's growing fast in my small garden!
Thanks all. I grew Nigella last year in greenhouse but another failure! I do have a lot of geraniums which made me wonder about that but they are not doing much yet. This is on a mission!
Did I pull it up to early for there to be a carrot nutcutlet?
Just looked at images of herb Robert and remember having some of that elsewhere last year....maybe it is this? Do they have shallow roots then punk doc?

Is this one plant or a mass of seedlings?

It is a weed ! I think it is the weed version of geranium , the name escapes me at the moment
You are thinking of Herb Robert arneil, it is not that.
Deep roots are against it being Nigella, although that is what it looks like to me.

carrots are biennials, if you grew them last year they would flower and seed this year. also when you pulled them up there would be a carrot.

Question is leave it or dig it up?
