      God I hate this weed, got loads in my garden and it will happily grow anywhere! I'm digging mine up but going to have to use roundup on what's growing through gravel path. Don't let it go to seed!

        Geum urbanum or wood avens. Definitely get rid, or it will seed itself all over the garden.

            Well, your hens may clear it, but ours never did, many other things went, but not that.
