The location is not important as it grew from a packet of Suttons
Wildlife Garden Annual Mix sown in a container. The packet contains
"Cornflower, Corn Marigold, Poppy and other Wild Flowers"

This will be an 'other' then but it seems not to quite fit in with
descriptions in Blamey, Fitter, Fitter (or indeed with the earlier
Fitter, Fitter, Blamey)

Suggestions appreciated. I have two of my own but cannot agree with
myself, hence this post
Image is reduced in size but otherwise unedited so colour etc is 'as
is' on a cloudy but fairly bright day


Glechoma hederacea (ground ivy)?


Thanks for your response.
That was one of my two options but it is described as pungent while
this is not.
My other option was Cut leaved dead nettle but it's the wrong colour.
