    @JamesS-B & @RoddersUK Yes, I thought I'd recognized a Dryopteris erythrosora. I have Dryopteris erythrosora var. prolifica on my "fern wall" and especially love its bronze/orangey new fronds.

    Some pics of the day...

    The answer to my previous riddle, those were leaves of Ligularia stenocephala 'The Rocket'

    My Japanese snowball 'Lanarth' thinks we are in Spring again. Quite a few flowers (and new foliage), more than usually at this time of year.

    I have a couple of different types of Phlox that think the same and are coming into flower again.

  • Lovely Myrtle.
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
  • @Songbird-1 your cosmos look fantastic! You obviously tend and deadhead a lot more often than I get a chance to!  :)
  • @Songbird-1 it certainly shows!!  :)
  • Beautiful garden @Perki. Is that Sanguisorba Pink Brushes? And is the rose 'Lady of Shallot' with Persicaria 'Orangefield'? Lovely combinations and doesn't look at all windswept.

    One variety of dahlia, spose to be random solid pink and white. I've had double heads, all white and as per the photos.

    @rachelQrtJHBjb It is a sanguisorba but Lilac squirrel , its been flowering for months with new buds still coming , the growth is lax so tend to fall over anyway . I grow 3 other variety's of snaguisorba and all are good plants with interesting foliage with autumn colour. 



    You're correct Rosa lady of Shallot planted with a new plant for me Persicaria September Spire - others plants are Astrantia hadspen blood - Lobelia hadspen purple ( I've only just noticed both have hadspen in their name ) In early summer I have a sky blue delphinium behind the rose. 

    Trick of the camera I think regarding the windswept, that eupatorium has flattened so many plants and the echinacea have been growing horizontal all summer  
  • Thanks very much for the plant names. P. 'September Spire' is a new one on me but looks to be a must-have. I love the sanguisorba with the agastache. In fact, I love the whole garden. Worthy of a GW visit. You probably know this already but the plants with Hadspen in the name were probably selections by Nori and Sandra Pope when they were at Hadspen House.   https://www.noelkingsbury.com/noelsgarden-blog/2019/7/27/nori-pope-of-hadspen-garden-an-obituary-5pwOa
