Hi
Does anyone know what this is please?
I thought it was a white Honesty at first but now think I am mistaken!
Thank you

i think its Alliaria petiolata, this grew everywhere in my college. its commonly known as garlic mustard I think. its pretty.
Thank you, thank you and thank you :-)
It is garlic mustard, I have lots of it in my garden & have spent many hours trying to get rid of it! You can see the seed pods on your pic. I recommend digging it up now before it sets seed. Make sure you get the roots out too or it will regrow. I have read that the seeds can last for years in the soil.
I recommend leaving some for the Orange Tip butterfly, this is their big larval food plant
