Close-ups of flowers

Spent several hours wandering around Sheffield Botanical Gardens last week.

I found this small 'rockery' Allium particularly attractive. The nearest match I can get to is unifolium. Anyone?





Cornus kousa





Tradescantia virginiana





Sisyrinchium striatum





Hesperantha coccinea 'Major'

 

@LunarSea I have allium unifolium Eros and it looks like a good match to me.

 

Thankyou @pitter-patter

 

Hymenosporum flavum.


Leucospermum "tango"


Epiphyllum.

 

Clematis 'Ville de Lyon'





Anemone rivularis 'Glacier'





Pink Peony





White Peony





Helianthemum (Rockrose)

 

Just a commercial variety of Regal Pelargonium, Burghi. So frequently some really nice cultivars can be had amongst the stuff sold for baskets. Same applies to all the hardy fuchsias that can be had for under £2.

 

Leptospermum silver sheen.


Aesculus californica.

 

The eyes have, the eyes have it

 

More of that Selfheal.

 

Seems my wife has been sneaking new bulbs into the beds. And I'm not complaining.

Allium amplectans 'Graceful Beauty'





Clematis 'Ville de Lyon'





Nameless but very fragrant white Rose

 

Opium poppy

Very windy so difficult to photo the flowers of our kiwi.

 

Very windy here too. In crossing one of the fields nearby, I tried to photograph the flower of the crop.
