Earlier in the year I spotted some seedlings in the herb bed but they looked a bit like strawberry plants so I left them to grow. What appeared doesn't seem to be a strawberry though, certainly not one which I'd want to eat. Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

I used to have 'Mrs Bradshaw' in my garden, she was so pretty. I have some Nicotiana sprouting at the moment, Silvestris I believe, looking forward to that, it was a gift [several years ago] from a friend in Germany. The opening up of the garden has allowed it to germinate from seeds that must have been cast about 5 years ago.
I'll try that again!

Earlier this week I ordered a couple of books from amazon - Richard Maybe's Food for Free and the Collins Gem wild flower book Danuta mentioned. The books have been quite handy already - so far I've identified Wild Mustard (which was part of the edible leaves and shoots mixture I got from Garden Organic) and Petty Spurge (which grows everywhere but seems to be 10 times worse this year).
