Seems like a perennial but not sure how consistent/strong of a perennial it is. Will spread from year to year. Not found in the greenhouses, am guessing it is considered a weed but personally I like it in the garden. Should be easy to ID because of the unique leaves. Attachments: Quote \| Reply \| Report

I believe I have found it! *Chelidonium majus* (Celandine) ~similar to Stylophorum (Celandine Poppy) but with alternate leaves, flowers 1" wide or less. This is considered a wildflower. http://www.homeopathyandmore.com/med_images/CHELID ONIUM_MAJUS.jpg http://www.sharkan.net/87-vlastovicnik-vetsi-lasto vicnik-vacsi-chelidonium-majus http://dic.academic.ru/pictures/wiki/files/67/Chel idonium_majus_bgiu.jpg ~remove any spaces found in url~ You can Google for more images if you like.

Another reference: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/496/ And it does seem to be a biennial as I think I have noticed, but does tend to spread itself pretty well. Quote \| Reply \| Report
