I'm sorry @KeenOnGreen, I don't know, it was here when I took over the garden. I've taken a shot of the inside, it might help with identification, someone on here may know.
Btw, it's resting on a Sedum, don't be confused by the leaves. 😅

Some from today, when for once it actually felt like Spring Apologies that they are all sideways, I have tried everything and the originals were the right way up!
@Papi Jo no - I hadn't thought to smell them (how sad that I assume that a plant is unscented) and now it's pouring with rain so I suspect I wouldn't be able to anyway? How exciting. Is it a good scent?
A good scent? It will be up to you to decide.
So Papi Jo first I have to say that this flummoxed me. I have been passing the pittosporum frequently for days and sniffing vigorously. Nothing. I have just been out for my early evening patrol and finally I got the scent! So it only does this in the evening??
I can see how it can divide people but I love it. Smells like honey. Just wonderful.
Some more anthemis punctata crashing the forget-me-not party!
My clematis Avalanche. Now, I normally get my clematis from Taylors or Thorncroft. This one I got from T&M just over a month ago and I must say - since they come in for a lot of criticism (often rightly so) - that on this occasion this arrived in just amazing condition. Covered in buds and really green and healthy. I planted it and readied myself for it to realise that it was no longer in the "forcing greenhouse" and drop its buds in protest but it has continued to flourish in the ground. I'm really super impressed. I just hope it doesn't exhaust itself.
@Camelliad thanks 😊 the honest truth is I loved it myself and a neighbour has a load of self seeded ones so I did a swop for some snowdrops. I'm hoping they self seed! If not I've got some more seeds as back up! I can't get over the vibrancy of blue in your picture of forget me not!
