I found this growing in my garden and, now, it's flowering, can someone identify it please.
-
It's a bit of a close up, but is it Leycesteria? I often get self-set ones pop up in my garden.
-
Looks like Leycesteria to me too!

Thanks so much for your replies. I think it looks worth saving, so will be finding a suitable spot to replant it.
Thanks again!

Yes, it's quite pretty - I've a self-sown one in my hedge, and it's staying. It does get a bit woody and thin with age, so you might need to prune out the older bits every few years.

In my garden they only last a few years so I was always glad of the seedlings but none left now.
