    First one is avens, related to geums  but tiny yellow flowers, followed by seeds that stick to everything.

    Don't know what the second one's called but that's a typical habitt for it.  If you don't get rid of it it'll be everywhere,  Which you might not mind.  It's not invasive, has shallow, weak roots anf pretty flowers.

    Thanks all image

  • I too have the second one (Cymbalria muralis), mostly growing out of cracks in my stone wall. I do generally take it off where I see it, but even so, I think it's quite pretty image

    It's very pretty. I'd love a wall with that growing in it.

    I,too, love ivy leaved toadflax and think its tiny snap dragonish flowers joyous.

    Hmmm maybe I'll leave it in the cracks then and just pull it up from the beds. The other one has had it though image
