    Thanks Pete. I will look that one up.
    Yes, I noticed the Gloxinia being the Incarvillea.

    I have only two blooms open on my 'Bryce' but the red one has disappeared. They don't seem to favour the constant heat/sun much.

            Oh that's a shame, I think I lost at least 4 flowers and some leaves but it came through.

                        I was holding off posting a photo of my blue & white corner until my roses and clematis opened (and I’d fixed my abysmal ruined grass ), but the irises are fading fast so here it is. And one of my monster hostas which are far too big this year!
