    Er, ahem!  image a bit hasty with my identification of puncdocs asters, VictoriaS.

    Looking again can't see the yellow centre that asters usually have and it may be too early for them. The colour reminds me of Asters, maybe pundoc has a specisl variety.

    Just when I thought I knew image 

    ah, well, another learning curve image

    Not Asters, they are Ageratum, a much larger form than the normal bedding types. i raise them from seed every year

    Leucanthemum massacreimage David, I don't like the sound of that at all...

    Meanwhile, is that a rudbeckia triloba? I've not seen one like that before. It's lovely, really funkyimage
