Is this a Celandine? It's appeared in one of my borders 🤔

Looks like it! I scarified & seeded/over seeded a new lawn in early autumn and did first skim this week. Covered seed in top quality compost & it self seeded in lawn!

It's pretty but a pain to get rid of

It's a nuisance in our garden. In the new lawn and borders. Forever digging it out!

Thanks @Darhigh , I suppose not great if your looking for a clean lawn. But fortunately my lawn has the more 'el natural wild' look 😂

@bvdeecken it's very tempting to leave it. The flowers do look quite pretty
