What is this plant? U/D!

Hi - can anyone identify this plant - its leaves are quite pretty but no sign of a flower yet!

Well, I had a look in one of my books and that was as near as I could get identifying it as Jacobs Ladder! I wont pull it up yet then!!
Thanks MF

 

Unless the photo is deceiving the leaves look alot bigger than my Jacobs Ladder. No use to any of you, but I cherish mine as my husband proposed to me at Jacobs Ladder on Kinder. He said he wanted to check I didnt climb like a girl before he popped the question, apparently I dont, not sure if thats a compliment or not.

 

Yes I agree polymonium, but loads ov varieties, mine go mad so I get rid, just one other thought - "Egge and cress" plant, I am sure someone will come up with propper name.

 

Er, hate to disagree, but I wonder if it is Goat's Rue? Galega officinalis.

 

Just thought Id let you all know this plant is a centaurea - I didnt recognise it even though I planted it last year :D

 

I put a picture of goats rue on the wildflower section..it does look like it but jacobs ladder is also similar..how tall is your plant as my goats rue is about 5 foot tall and its in flower now..

 

Wildflower - yes its very similar - mines about 2 foot tall

MF - very similar to Jacobs Ladder - the leaves are really interesting I think....glad I didnt dig it up!!

 

Whooops I ought to have recognised that, we have a garden full of it. Mind my excuse is that the leaves on ours are much darker green than that!
