In London it is called a weed but if anyone wants some I'll dig a few plants up a little more carefully than normal.

The seed pods are much more impressive than the flower. Worth growing for these in the autumn/early winter.

Thanks all! :)
I thought they were rather pretty - but I don't want a garden full of 'em! So they're coming out. Pronto. Glad I asked! Thanks again.
