Is it a flower or a weed ?.

How can I get rid of it permanently - it's growing everywhere in my garden
?.


Hieracium aurantiacum
English Name: Orange Hawkweed or Fox and Cubs
I think
R. :-)


Certainly looks like one, a google search on Ragnar's suggestion shows a
few decent images.

A weed is only a plant growing where you don't want it but probably
is classed as a weed.

Glyphosate is probably the best treatment.
