    It's a Geum, Passionate.   There is a Geum which is classified as a weed - Wood Avens (Geum urbanum), but yours looks far more refined.  image

    This is the weedy one:

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Yes, that doesn't look like the weedy one. How many plants are there. The weed never comes in singles



    In the sticks near Peterborough

    Thanks Bob and nutcutlet, I have three of them and I do remember the name now you have mentioned it, what I can't remember is them growing last year, they look so different, maybe i will recall them when they flower, thanks again much appreciated.
