    Looks like sweet rocket, Hesperis matrionalis. Should be nicely scented especially later in the day/evening



    In the sticks near Peterborough

    @ nutcutlet, thanks for your response, but is it a friend or foe?

    A definite friend - there's also a white form - go out into the garden  on a warm evening and the air will be full of the most delicious scent - good for moths and butterflies image
