    Which one did you want to ID ?

    The little Clover type plant to the left is an Oxalis.

    Philippa, the plant to the right is the Oxalis. 😀
    The one on the left could be a heuchera but not sure.

    Could it be a Sanguinaria or Bloodroot?  S. canadensis  is the one most usually found for sale.

    This is not bloodroot.  S. canadensis looks like this. I live west of Chicago and I have this plant in my garden. I love it. It is one of the first plants to show itself in the spring (along with the Virginia Bluebell) and it does so with a small white bud on a stem.  The bud opens and the flower stands there on its own. Soon, the leaves - these very peculiar leaves - start to appear. It is early April here - we are still getting some snow - and I cannot wait for this plant to appear.                                                             Bloodroot in late bloom

    I don't think this is a Sanguinaria. Easy to find out cut a stem and it bleeds. 
    Looking forward to my new garden with clay soil here in South Notts.

    Gardening is so exciting I wet my plants.

    Perhaps the original poster @mackergxz6UQGT1 would like to come back and let us know.  The post was from last year so maybe they can identify it now.
