Aegopodium podagraria, Heesch, Netherlands
I was merely testing a new lens in the garden, with subjects being scarce in this winter state. Had not expected this to be a new species. Even better, to accidentally photograph one of its main keys. In dutch, it's named "Seven leaf".

''Aegopodium podagraria'' is a perennial plant in the carrot family that grows in shady places. The name "ground elder" comes from the superficial similarity of its leaves and flowers to those of elder, which is unrelated. This species is native to Eurasia, and has been introduced around the world as an ornamental plant, where it occasionally poses an ecological threat as an invasive exotic plant.
