Thanks Martin. Here again.

In various languages:~)
Heracleum sphondylium - Berenklauw | Berce commune | Hogweed |
Wiesen-Bärenklau


nearly :-)
H. mantegazzianum or giant hogweed

Be careful as it can cause skin irritation

And will take over yer riverbank. It is huge and invasive.
here is what is said on a belgian site:
Reuzenbereklauw, Heracleum mantegazzianum: een gevaarlijke plant!
which means keep the livestock and women indoors.

Interesting - very different leaf from the other hogweed, isn't it? Much
shinier.

Call it dedication but I have just inspected, by torchlight, one of the two
Heracleums growing here. I had never noticed that some of the stems are
almost completely red.
The rest of the stems are a blotchy red with paler bits. The leaf is the
right shape etc . The picture shows the plant in bright sunlight which might
account for the brighter/shinier look.
You are welcome to a cutting:-)
