mimulus of some sort, flowers might be orchid like but the leaves aren't
In the sticks near Peterborough
Is it an annual? Just googled and it is bach flower remedy. These other leaves were also in drive.
In fact whole drive has lots of stuff growing in it! They are the same people with the magnolia's that I posted about in another thread.
I think these are Mimulus Cupreus Red Emperor. They are hardy and a perennial. But they are quite short lived, but usually, there are many new plantlets from one plant over time. They need damp moist soil to grow well.
