Common Fumitory

Fumaria oficinalis

A common "weed" of disturbed ground (hence it growing in the allotment).
The name seems to be derived from smoke. Either the appearance of a drift of the greyish foliage, or because when you dig it up, the broken roots give off an acid vapour that stings your eyes.

Apparently.
