Hello,

Was wondering if someone could help me identify this plant found in partially wooded parkland just north of London.

Hi ackrowe

I first thought this may be Parsley Piert but looking closer I find it is not that. I'm just off to bed but would you mind waiting until tomorrow and we will have a longer look and let you know.

It's difficult to say as there is so little of it to see (and it helps to have a photo of the whole plant so that you can see the way the leaves/stems come out of the ground and how the leaves come off the stems, but I wonder if these are young Fumitory plants. Here is our entry for it:

and here is a photo of a young Fumitory plant

does it look to you like it could be the same?

Sorry for the quality of the photos and yes I reckon that's it a young fumitory.

Thank you so much for your help!

Having realised we did not have a photo of the seedling here is one I have taken close up.
