Hi,

Please can someone tell me what this "weed" is, growing in my garden in
West Yorkshire. The plants grow to about 40cm tall and the flowers are
8mm across.

Very pretty and attractive to bees, I believe. I'd certainly hold onto a big

Thank you all. That's definitely it. Don't worry, it won't be going anywhere.
