    This plant is in dry dappled shade. The larger leaves are from a geranium. The little carrotty leaves belong to the mystery plant

    I think that's Orlaya grandiflora, native to Mediterranean Europe.

      That'll be it, then. I sometimes empty the seeds in the bottom of my seed box in that part of the garden. I rarely see anything though!
