Thank you @AnniD I'm up in the Highlands. The gardens are like a wildlife sanctuary. A Gatwick for birds with a Lilac explosion. It’s so useful to live with other people’s “normal” for a while. Thousands of chaffinch, song thrush and warblers. Dozens of types of lichen and mosses. 😊
A large camera bag really is useful for collecting things, as flowers, fallen lichen, cones, feathers etc don’t get crushed while out walking.
@Papi Jo I wish I could tell you for certain but I'm an amateur gardener in the loosest definition of that word. Also, it being my parent's garden I'm not entirely sure what was planted where exactly. However, they do have a planting list and the ones in that bed are as follows:
Astrantia major 'Primadonna' Masterwort, (Great)
Astrantia major 'Roma' Masterwort, (Great)
Astrantia major rosea Masterwort, (Great)
Astrantia major 'Rubra' Masterwort, (Great)
Astrantia major 'Star Of Treasure' Masterwort, (Great)
Astrantia major 'Sunningdale Variegated' Masterwort, (Great)
Love the daisies B3, and nice grass too. I am always amazed when I visit gardens with lawns, as my grass is what's known as a 'country lawn', full of couch, Yorkshire fog, the sort of grass that elicits cries for help on here! (But some nice wildflowers too.) Cherish your daisies!
