Identification of plant
 
I am trying to find the name of a plant I have in my garden, but cannot find it. I am sure it begins with L cos I vaguely remember when I bought it - can anyone help. I have a picture of it, but don't know how to attach a picture to this forum, perhaps someone can tell me how to, or perhaps I can email someone? Thanks. PS. just seen the browse for pictures, here goes:

You can easily sign up to a geocities webpage via www.yahoo.com you can then
follow the step by step guide for posting pictures and just let us know the
web address by posting a link here.

Looks like Linaria to me. Self seeds like mad at home and in our school
grounds. I never mind because it is so pretty ;-)

Yes, I thought it was Linaria, but when I went to find images of Linaria on the web - they didn't look a bit like mine, yes, it is everywhere, but as you say so very pretty and can always be pulled up. Thanks.

I had just this question from a work colleague a few months ago.
Definitely purple toadflax (linaria purpurea).
