Plants
Hello
Can anyone identify these for me, please?
First one is from a garden centre. (I lost the label and forgot... Doh!) Second is from a packet of mixed wild flower seeds.

The last one [and 2nd last] is Corncockle
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

I didn't mean the cosmos. The thing in front of the cosmos.
Thanks re corncockle. How nice!

I think nemesia too probably - sorry, forgot about that one
Corncockle is lovely - good in a mixed border as well as a wildflower setting.

I think it is. I am a noodle for losing the label.
It's been flowering away for months. It's a modest plant but has given me a lot of pleasure.

re the corncockle, there were also a few cornflowers, a daisy like thing, visible in the photo. Interested to see what the remaining plants are (although might be too later for them flower now, so I may ever know.)
