    All from our patch. Paladin, no 15. is not even a succulent, the one normally seen at this time of year is probably up to 5 feet tall!

    5 is Hieracium aurantiacum
    6 is a Linaria alpina
    Close with 8 and 9, Heron's bill rather than Crane's bill. Erodiums.

    Full list with the names I know available on request!

    Fox and Cubs it is, book says Pilosella aurantiacum, so it was me that was wrong with the Latin. Always known it as Grim the Collier..
    The differences between Erodiums and Geraniums are small.
