Might be a weed or might be something nice....?

Looks like perennial cornflower to me (Centaurea). Definitely nice if it is a cultivar or even if it is the british native one. :happy7:

I agree with Ed
This is it in flower

A third vote for cornflower! :)

Ah yes of course! Thank you all so much. They've just appeared. Looking forward to the flowers.
Really appreciated! CL :happy7:

And here is ...drumroll...the first flower! Thanks again all. Any tips on how I can spread these around welcome. CLx

I know this as knapweed.

It will spread by itself if happy. I have blue, white, pale pink and deep purple forms and find babies which I leave or move depending on where they appear.
