I think fif is correct, Orange hawkweed.
Excellent!! Thankyou all.
This plant has lots of names including Tawny Hawkweed, Devil's Paintbrush and Fox-and Cubs.
It's pretty but can be a bit of a thug. One for a slightly wilder corner rather than manicured borders IMO
Both topbirds and fifs Latin names are correct. They keep changing it. Not sure which is the current one.
I thinK Pilosella is now. Or was that last week?
Thanks for the warning Topbird! I've been reading up on it and am going to 'nip it in the bud' as soon as it starts going to seed. I do like it though.
