Lesser Celandine (Ficaria verna) - a photo on Flickriver

            Member of the buttercup family, sometimes known as pilewort. Native to Western Europe and Asia, it’s considered an invasive species in North America.

The plant is poisonous if ingested raw and potentially fatal to grazing animals and livestock .For these reasons, several US states have banned the plant or listed it as a noxious weed

It likes bare, damp ground and is considered by horticulturalists in the United Kingdom as a persistent garden weed. In spite of this, many specialist nursery owners and discerning gardeners in the UK and Europe collect selected cultivars of the plant, including bronze-leaved and double-flowered ones.]

Emerging in late winter with flowers appearing March through May in the UK, its appearance across the landscape is regarded by many as a harbinger of spring.
