Thanks for identifying that one. I have no neglected grass areas, but my neighbours plots are both  huge neglected grass areas and nothing else!

Can anyone identify this please? It's popping up everywhere on my plot, it has a white root...but i spose most weeds do lol.  When it flowers, I think it has white flowers if I recall.

Is it a white tap root? Or a mass of shallow tiny roots? It doesn't look a leaf which has tangly, spaghetti like, creeping roots? Have any produced any flowers at all? I am not sure from your photo what it is, the leaves look a little bit like calendula, but I don't think it is that. I am sure someone will know.  :)

It's not calendula, I have just googled it.   The root on it is 1 single white root, looks kind of like couch grass root, and i'd say probly just as fragile, and it's not a tap root.  It has not produced any flowers yet cos i keep pulling them out before it gets chance.  I will pull 1 up today and take another picture with the root.

It's not pachysandra is it? That has white flowers. Now having goggled it - probably no. Creeping cinquefoil is you best bet to date, but that has yellow flowers, not white.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

My guess is either Thale cress or common whitlow grass.  Its not that I know anything about these things I just like browsing through the wild flower book.
