I bought a house with 240' x 65' very mature rear garden in 2015 and I haven't got a clue where to start in it! :'(

Help me identify this plant please. They're not in a great place, so if they're a good plant to keep then I might try to move them sometime.

This looks like euphorbia lathyris, also called spurge. It can spread quite a lot and is usually planted for its ability to ward off moles in gardens.

Thanks zylo, that looks like it very much. I think it must have found its own way into that spot and I haven't seen any moles in that area of the garden. I just need a plant that can ward off foxes now :-)
