Very nice shots, Lyn....at first glance I thought they were Willow Herb. But no disgrace to them (Willow Herb) as I always think that many of nature's so called weeds are quite stunning on closer inspection.
I remember Busy-Lizzies! I still grow them every year from plug plants. Had a few ill ones about three years ago, but all OK since. Perhaps France didn't suffer so much.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Thanks for that, Lizzie....I didn't know.
Higgy - I knew they were Busy Lizzies.....I just wondered if anyone remembered them, post mildew disease.

Can't remember what these were called.
Anyone remember Busy Lizzies?
Bottom picture is Busy Lizzies, I want to say Verbena for the top but don't think that's right...
Edit - No definitely not Verbena, not sure what they are, Not very good on my bedding plants I'm afraid...
Keeping in with the theme.....
Not a pretty flower but represents a lovely time of year!
They are phlox drumondii, I think, David.
