Need help identifying these plants in my garden (Draft Thread)

Thanks again Pete, and also kalmia_latifolia. I think the plants are all virtually identified now. There's only one other plant, at the front of my house, that I'd like to get photo of.

Perhaps, once I make some sketches I can start to trim down the buddleia & clematis, remove some thorn bush and weeds such as the ragwort. Then I guess I'll have a better idea of the space the garden has, and how I can use it. What would the rest of you do, and what would you change in the garden, if anything?

 

Earthman, I think the bottom three on your last list are:- !/ Scilla ( Bluebell or Squill ). 2/ One of the Primula family, possibly denticulata, and 3/ As Pete says, Bergenia.

 

Nursewhen mentioned that the following plant could be a cornflower. Did she mean coneflower? I have no idea, it's just that I was on another site, and there seem to be lots of coneflowers compared to cornflowers.

 

It says "Image deleted"

 

Try again now

 

Its corn flower

 

Cheers again Pete.

 

Its a centaurea montana like its been said:p

 

Thanks slinky.

 

Yeah, thanks aswell.

 

Hello Earthman and welcome. What a garden you have got into - did your predecessor not leave any details - it seems that whoever planted this lot was quite a keen gardeneer. Would agree with the experts on the naming of the plants - you should get at the Buddleia pretty quickly before it gets carried away. The clematis is almost certainly 'Montana' , famous for it's 'rampant' habit........best of luck for the future.........

 

Coneflower is a general name for a wide range of the Asteraceae family which includes echinacea and rudbeckia. Centaurea (Cornflowers) are also in the Asteraceae family, but I don't think they fall under coneflower.

 

Thanks again Nursewhen for the info, and also to you chobart. Funnily enough, I thought the clematis might be "montana", looking at wiki and other sites:D

 

I missed a plant (climber?) in my garden that I need to identify. Can anyone help. The flowers smell a little pungent and sweet, but it has thorns. Here's what it looks like:

 

Earthman, its a rose mate.

Type, a white one.:D

I'm sure someone else will be able to give you a bit more info.
