    Too many all at once. Maybe number them and then people will respond to those but not all at once.

      You could do say three at a time, and just add another three as you get answers to the first three, other wise it just gets confusing.

          Hi @Leafylearner
          Hylotelephium spectable (maybe 'Iceberg'), Phlox paniculata (possibly 'Bright eyes') and Crocosmia (possibly 'Lucifer').

            Agree with @Leafylearner but the Crocosmia isn’t Lucifer, which is red and taller. I can’t tell the variety, there are quite a few of the smaller, orange ones

              Thanks, wow the knowledge on here is fantastic. I have posted 3 more. The orange flower could be Crocosmia 'Star of the East' Or Crocosmia, montbretia maybe? Thanks @Butterfly6 & @BobTG.

              The bush/shrub at the end, img 9454 - is partly twigs.
              What is this bush and Do I just cut the dead bits off this?

              3. Crocosmia.
              There are many named cultivars.
              Trecanna nursery in Cornwall specializes in Crocosmia it list 70.

              crocosmia Crocosmia from Trecanna Nursery - UK

              Impossible to say which one yours is but agree with Butterfly 6 it is not Crocosmia Lucifer, which is a particularly robust one with deep red flowers....can reach 1.6m tall.

              PLEASE start a new thread for your next batch.

                There are loads of orange Crocosmias, so it's very difficult to say which one you have. However, if it's montbretia, which is the widespread, common one, and doesn't behave like the cultivated varieties, you'll struggle to keep it under control if it's happy. It can be a real thug.

                That last pic [9454] in your recent post looks like box. 9453 is a cyclamen. I don't know the other one.

                Just looked again and that first pic [9447] could be an Aster. There are lots of varieties.

                img_9447 - Aster divaricatus

                img_9454 - Euonymus japonicus Aureus - you can prune it as much as you like :)

                  Oh dear..2nd batch.
                  9447....Aster maybe divaricatus has now been renamed Eurybia divaricatus.....pics below to show leaves
                  9453....Cyclamen...maybe Cyclamen hederifolium album.
                  9454...Is Euonymus...leaves lower down look to be variegated....pic not clear enough to see detail.

                  Leafylearner PLEASE start a new thread for next batch.

                  I was torn between box and one of the Euonymus @Silver surfer and @Pete8 , but yes - I agree it's the latter. I forget about all the various Euonymus varieties that are around! :smile:
