White or pinkish buds, @mazambo? Not Anemone japonica, is it?Nick
Yes it's this one, a cultivar of uplandicum. I don't actually get much self-seeding with officinale, it just slightly spreads out into the lawn...
They're brilliant and I also adore Paul Simon's Graceland album, it helped spark a love of African and World music in me, absolutely...
Looks like a grass. I believe the most popular comfrey species in Britain are officinale (Common, the one I grow) and uplandicum (Russian and...
Something I noticed this morning is that the leaves on my plant have symmetrical notches, typically toward the tips of the leaves, not sure if...
Great way of looking at it! :blue thumb: My garden isn't large either so I have a similar attitude and have decided to focus on...
Third photo looks like a comfrey.Nick
Thank you for the tip, but even if those things weren't flawed I think it would take all the fun and learning out of the identification process...

Yes I did indeed, mentioned it in the post above yours, SS. :smile:That's the bit that I can't make sense of, if it's the eryngium why are the...
I think it's a honeybee. But coincidentally, today is the first time I've ever seen a mason bee which seemed to be collecting earth, I've had...
I'd say blueberry out of the two, but I'm not sure about the "popped up" bit! :biggrin: Don't they take a couple of years to get to that size from...
It's pretty much predicted to be perfect weather for planting/transplanting slightly larger plants this week, generally partly cloudy, warm but...
Had a bit of backache after transplanting the Eupatorium cannabinum yesterday, so I took it easy and just planted a very healthy-looking...
Thanks Nigel, I think it must be an alpinum because I can't possibly imagine what else it might be at this stage! :biggrin: The seedlings in that...
The two species absolutely dominating my garden ATM are Holly Blues (a phenomenal number compared to previous years here, last week there were...
Thanks very much @Silver surfer, I can certainly see why you'd think bergenia as the leaves are quite similar to some of them, but I thought I got...
Honeysuckle or Jasmine would both be good options IMO, but then even when in flower you don't get much fragrance from them on cloudier, cooler...
I think the trouble would be that any plant's fragrance wouldn't be sufficiently strong and that the flowering period would be too brief. I would...
Yes, I thought Kalanchoe or a sedum myself Vicky, but I certainly haven't bought the former and only have spectabile of the latter and another...
Separate names with a comma.
