Solved Anyone know this wild flower/weed?

I agree with @Grays that there seems to be more of it around this year than usual. Lots of the front gardens I walk past on the way to work are featuring it.

 

Sorry to hijack this thread I still can’t work out how to start one of my own.

Here are two terrible photos of a small, quick growing plant that appeared in my garden about three weeks ago. It has very bright green leaves and tiny, pink (they look white in the photos) flowers. It began flowering when it was only about 3” tall and is now about 6” tall.

 

Hi @Tidemark

Looks like Fagopyrum esculentum aka Buckwheat.

 

Thank you very much. That would make sense as it’s quite near to the bird feeder. Thanks again.

 

Leaves and flowers are edible, if you have enough. Will seed in UK conditions. Can be milled or roasted wholeseeds
