Hi @AnniD and everyone else here! Gorgeous photos! But I'm dying to know the name of the white plant in the picture of yours that I've screenshot from your post???
Thank you in advance I fancy this plant in my border!
@Fire only the pink one is perennial. The Scabiosa Columbaria (cream colour) is meant to be a prolific self seeder so I may get some babies from that and perhaps from the Black Knight too.
Can't seem to get any good photos this time of day. The lighting confuses the camera. Couldn't resist trying to capture it in this one though-sorry it's a bit grainy. Leaves have started to fall already.
Hazel is right, it is phlox paniculata. I can't tell you the exact variety, as it came from my mum's garden and l just call it "Mum's phlox" ! It's possibly "White Admiral", but l'm afraid the label has long gone. Hope this helps.
Sorry Fire, I was being very obtuse there. I thought you were just typing in pink to make the boys wink! Indeed, that one is Lythrum Dropmore Purple. I think it likes moist conditions but seems perfectly happy in this dry, sunny spot in front of my potting shed.

Depending on which photo you’re referring to, it could be Cosmos Double Click series, Lavatera Baby Barnsley or Lythrum Dropmore Purple.

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
