in Plants
A while ago I posted a couple of pictures of a plant I had growing in the garden, various suggestions were made but I now think I have found out what it is here are the pictures I posted at the time.
The first was taken in April
The second taken in May
Taken today
I think it could be Platycodon (Balloon Flower)

Lucky you Yvie - they always catch my eye - are yours blue or white ??
I've had a blue one for years and it comes up faithfully. i saw plants in full bloom, blue and white varieties, in B& Q on Sunday If anyone is looking for one.
That's the first time I've heard of a balloon flower but they look like the sort of thing I would like
Curious how they emerge from the ground...
Thanks for the heads up about b&q Eric's Mum, will go and check them out.
No idea what colour they will be, they were suposed to be agastache blue boa. I ordered three, two have turned out to be agastache but this must be the third. At least, it's in the place where I planted it.
