  • Anyone recognise this plant?

    Hello all,

    I am new to this GYO business and wanted some advice please!



    This plant has sprung out of a packet of parsley seeds - I'm fairly confident its not parsley (!) and also think it is probably a weed - but wanted to make sure its not something more interesting before I throw it away!

    The pictures aren't brilliant unfortunately - but any advice welcome!

    Thanks in advance

      Looks a bit like rocket to me I was going to say taste one of the leaves but if you are not sure, best to leave it!

      Hah, you beat me to it VC

          Let me guess - it has yellow/orange flowers

            No flowers now - unfortunately I missed them while I was on holiday - but the seed heads are definitely poppies - adding to my nice collection of poppy seeds for the front garden though!
