Er, ahem! 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.
victoria sponge makes me want to be a bee-nice verbena bonariensis. garden a wreck from heat and neglect but the monsoon followed me home from arizona. all your gardens look great. driving home i was filled with plans for next year beginning with a leucanthemum massacre.

Just when I thought I knew
ah, well, another learning curve
I garden for insects so thought I'd put on some pics from today and yesterday.
You must have millions of very happy insects
I certainly spotted all the gorgeous bees
Gorgeous pics, make you smile pics


Not Asters, they are Ageratum, a much larger form than the normal bedding types. i raise them from seed every year
When you don't even know who's in the team

Certainly don't look a wreck in these pics! Really lovely
Leucanthemum massacre
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 funky

thank you, Ageratum , a good front border plant I can see, on my list for the new bed. Long lasting ?
