As far as I know, this plant belongs to a temperate herbaceous species, it lives outdoors in the Netherlands. Does anybody know its Latin name?

Bit more info would be good - for one thing, is this a picture of a climber against a wall, or a close up of it coming out of the ground, and second, any other info, like what type of flower, when and the colour. Eventual height, maybe?– BambooCommented Nov 7, 2013 at 15:54

Does it grow a flower stock in the summer? It looks like sorrel (rumex acetosa), but I'm not certain.– michelleCommented Nov 7, 2013 at 16:06

@Bamboo Thanks for the reply. I didn't see its flowers, but I heard this plant has red flowers, which bloom in summer. The approximate height is 40 cm (without flowers). This picture is a close up of it coming out of the ground. Thanks.– YuanCommented Nov 8, 2013 at 11:54

@michelle Thanks for the answer. Yes, I heard that this plant blooms red in summer.– YuanCommented Nov 8, 2013 at 11:58

Might well be the one Michelle suggested, but its pretty hard to be sure when its at this stage.– BambooCommented Nov 8, 2013 at 19:58

Following up with michelle's comment, it definitely appears to be in the rumex genus. Take a look at some of the different species. I followed stormy's link to wikipedia. Here's another, although the stem is redder: Rumex obtusifolius
