Can anyone identify this self see der

The leaves don't smell. It's growing in a container in sheltered light shade

 

No ideas?

 

I can't tell from just the leaves but if you wait for the flowers to open (which by the way it looks will be soon) I might know it.

 

Thanks @Michael Hewett

 

It might be a Hypericum @BB3, but I’m not sure .

 

Thank you @Plantminded . I don't know much about hypericums but it doesn't look like one I've seen.

 

Have you had any pet bunnies passing through your garden of late?

Looking it up, I suggest it is the very unusual Synedrella nodiflora, a sub tropical annual known as Cinderella weed in Australia. Apparently its seeds are can be used to bulk out rabbit feed and seeds can be dispersed by attachment to animals’ fur.

All very unlikely.

 

Not many bunnies around here

 

Agree.
Interesting.
Synedrella nodiflora,..not a plant that I know, but looking on www the flowers always appear as singles. Mystery plant has clusters of buds waiting to open.
Need more pics when flowers open.
Maybe Asteraceae?

 

It doesn't look as though the leaves and stems are hairy, so might it be Lysimachia nemorum?

 

Could be @noisette47 . I have lots of the red one
Just checked scarlet pimpernel doesn't appear to be related, but your suggestion is a definite possibility - that or nemesia, perhaps.
Time will tell

 

Doesn't look right for Lysimachia nemorum...common name yellow pimpernell.

 

I looked up Nemesia originally, but the leaves are much narrower and more toothed

 

@BB3 Looks very similar to a photo that @Sheps has in the wild flowers album.
