What is this please

Could someone identify these please? Got several of them, pink and purple, growing in cracks between driveway blocks and in the baths. The Bees adore them.

 

Hu Luciusmaximus ,

It's Linaria Purpurea , common name Toadflax. It's a hardy perennial so if there are any colours you really like just move them to a better position.

 

Thank you . Why do they need to be moved?

 

Sorry, they don't necessarily need to be moved, it's just that they can grow into clumps and I didn't know if you'd want them in your driveway. If you like them there leave them

 

Whenever Daughter Poppy moaned about her name, I reminded her that the Toadflax was flowering when she was born

 

Thank glod it was the wrong time of year for Stinking Hellebore

 

Yep, Poppy Hemlock would never have forgiven me

 

Maybe save some of the seed and grow it in a more sensible spot next year. I love the pink version, you don't see it very often.
