Spotted this growing in my front garden. Never seen it before, no others around. Any idea what it might be? By the way the flowers are mature I think, not buds. Clusters of upside down green with a tiny yellow spot.

I can't see the pics here, but whatever you do don't touch it!

I'll tell you what it is later.

Actually I think it's a mutant combination of cranesbill, geranium and fern...

Had you put two of those in a different order we could call it a Ferg.

Mystery solved (and my hopes of having a new plant named after me dashed with it).

Common ragweed from America, used in birdseed. How'd it get there? I, ummmmmmm, feed birds in my front garden rolleyes
