Can anyone please tell me if this plant is friend or foe? As there seems to be quite a few popped up in the front garden I would assume that they are weeds, but on the other hand....

I have seen these before, but for the life of me I cant remember what they are. Someone will be along shortly to tell you though.
Could they be small golden rod.
I don't have any & I haven't seen any near by, but it would be nice if they were.
I don't know the name of the plant but its a weed - we get lots growing on our allotment and it spreads by pieces of root being left in - the roots are often deep and spreading
So dig it up!
if it was me, I would say it was a cudweed, though it doesn't look like most of the pics i've looked at
Thanks - off with it's head... & all the other bits of it!
If in doubt dig it out. ;) Then burn the bu ba-lamb!! ;D
If it's an annual it could go on the compost heap but, to be on the safe side as no one is sure what it is, I'd burn it to make sure it doesn't spread from the roots.
PS PLease don't let the seed blow south Poppy. I've enough weeds of my own thanks. ;D
