What plant is this?

dannie

Could it be nipplewort which I have read is an edible weed?

REEN

I think you are right. Could be garlic mustard though. If it has yellow flowers, nipplewort, white flowers, garlic mustard.

dannie

Thanks Reen for your opinion. Anybody else think the same?

Garlic mustard, yes.

Nothing like nipplewort!

I have both.:D

Would agree with Davesnave.

I'd add more, but that's your answer!

Immediate Edit on instant reflection:.... I would agree, but I strongly suspect that, in due course, say four weeks,the bright yellow flowers will suggest it is Nipplewort all along. I suspect that, should the OP manage to take such pictures, and I'm sure (s)he will, the case will be proven....

Oh, if only history could be tidied up so.... now, that report on WMD that is out any moment, ten years ago... where's my edit function...???

Ah, but I was partly wrong, because although it's garlic mustard, it is quite like nipplewort too.

So the thing I've been calling nipplewort.....isn't!

Now I have an ID job to do!

Looks like wild rhubarb, which is not as sweet as the normal variety.

Makes a very useful salve for chilblains, that does.

Sorry for the delay in saying thanks for your replies. I have been reading about your ideas. I will see what colour the flowers are to try to further establish its identification.
