Thanks anyway @B3, I thought it must be something coming from my neighbours garden, but it doesn’t look like she has it. I think the leaves are to big for vinca. Not sure if that’s a flower bud in the first pick, so maybe I ‘ll find out soon.
Thanks for commenting @philippasmith2, hopefully it’ll flower soon & I can be sure. It may be from the neighbours although I can’t see it, she hasn’t been very well the last couple of years & the gardens gone a bit wild. We often chat over the fence so I’ll try & catch her to clarify if she has it.
Looks spookily like Hypericum to me. Is it pushing it's way through your walls and under slabs etc? No?, just wait a few months then! Pretty and exotic looking yellow flowers but beware !!! It's the most thuggish thing in my garden, I have given up trying to rid myself of it, it is just too extensively established now and I have to content myself to rip out yards of it every spring in an attempt to limit it's spread further.
There are lots of different varieties, some like in @owd potter's picture have flowers 2 to 3 inches across. The variety I have has much smaller flowers which are followed by lovely pinky green berries.
