    Does anyone know what this is, just wondering if it will flower and wether it is something that will be a problem if left.

    In that second photo it looks as though it is flowering, so yes, if left it will become a weed, or wild flower if you subscribe to the 'right plant wrong place' philosophy;)

    Thanks [​IMG]
    Not sure what to do with it now, it doesn't look weedy the same way a nettle does, and looks at home on the rocks, but unless it produces some nice little flowers (cant see any photos on Google of it in flower) or is beneficial to insects I may just pull it up and put something in its place next spring.

    The paragraph under that pic (in the link) makes it sound like a very boring plant lol
