    Willowherb, a weed/wildflower with insignigicant flowers.

      Greater willowherb, I think. This one has bigger flowers, but it seeds absolutely everywhere.

          Certainly a pain in the whatsit, in your garden.

          However along country lanes etc, it really doe add to the beauty of the landscape and is home to the catapiller, Elephant Hawk Moth.
