Solved Can anyone help me identify this please?

Discovered this in my garden, not sure what it is, any ideas?

 

Wild Datura belonging to the nightshade family Solanaceae. They are commonly known as thornapples, jimsonweeds or devil's trumpets.

 

Hi Victoria, Oh so is this just a nice looking weed? Should I just remove it?

 

Hi Dawn. You could keep it if you like it. I grow many of the Solanaceae family in my garden and I have cats, but cats are sensible enough not to eat poisonous plants, of which 90% in your garden is.

If you let it seed you will have lots of them coming up next year.
It is slightly invasive but not to any great extent.
I usually allow a few in amongst the veg most years.

 

Thank you so much both of you for your replies. Have a great day
