Default The Mystery Weed

Here is another Mystery Weed that whose Identity no one in my Company has any idea what it is.

If anyone can Identify this Weed, Please Do!






I was told that it might be Mustard, but its Seed Pods dont taste anything like Mustard.



So what kind of Plant is this? Please let me know if you can work it out.

It looks a bit like what we call 'mustard garlic', but I don't think it is a true mustard, maybe the leaves taste a bit like mustard? It sometimes has white flowers, but not always.

It also looks like a weed related to the dandelion family, that has a yellow flower?

Good thinking!

I wondered about that, but I have celandines growing in a woody bit of the garden behind the shed..(They are over now, they flower early spring.).....but it has different leaves to those in the Druids pic,they are dark green and very shiney, so I think mine are the 'lesser celandine'.
I looked up just 'Celandine' and there is another sort, NOT 'lesser celandine' (greater? ) with leaves more like the Druids pic.

First pic = 'Celandine', second one the 'lesser' one...
