Any ideas?

The first I saw growing wild - the second and third are in a garden.

Thanks in advance.-

1) wallflower
2) The yellow flower and the water-lily-shaped leaves are lesser
celandine, an invasive uk native, the rosettes are probably London
Pride, a saxifrage which will later have pink-stalked loose spikes of
small white flowers.
3) Snow-in-Summer, which will in due course have a glorious burst of
being smothered in white flowers.

I think your London Pride ID is a sedum.


You mean one of those rather flat leaved ones? Not fleshy enough for the
stone-crop type of sedum.

But the leaf shape and venation is very similar to other non-fleshy
saxifrages, and is a good match for the leaves in the link posted by
Dave Hill.
