I'm just getting into gardening, it was the garden that sold this house to us, we are just getting on top of the overgrown mess and reclaiming it.

@tiggrx thank you, can't find it in the list. Is it a weed? (I know a weed is only a plant in the wrong place 😜)

I've added it to the encyclopaedia for you. Definitely not a weed, it's an old cottage garden plant and can be difficult to grow. The trick is to never disturb the plant which can be difficult as it dies back to roots after flowering.

@tiggrx thank you, I was just googling it. Will have to find some way to mark it as we are working our way up that part of the garden taking out cow parsley and would hate to kill it. It's very pretty.
