      Hi nFrost,

      Not sure on the first one ( would like to see the leaves ) but it looks like a Penstemon.

      The second one is Lysimachia Punctata. Definitely not a wild flower, probably a garden escapee.

        At a guess, nFrost that's common spotted orchid, dog rose, Russian comfrey.

        I saw bee orchid on a roundabout today. Nice.

          Yeah, I have a second one in my garden. Agreed, it's yellow loostrife. Re: the second, there are lots of introduced forage legumes. I'm too lazy to learn them all.

          Possibly tufted vetch for that legume.

              It's Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria). Loves to grow in damp, sunny areas and the flowers have a lovely, delicate fragrance. :dbgrtmb:

                            I think it's a a spurge of some kind, possibly Petty Spurge (Euphorbia peplus).
