    34. clematis

    35. alchemilla mollis

    36. I'm thinking lily of the valley. How long are the leaves?

    37. foxglove

    38. purple toadflax

    39. Looks like you've got harebell mixed in with dafodil bulbs. Not sure what the other plant is though.

    Wonderful! You guys are great. I feel I should reward you somehow.

  • Wow, what a list!

     

    41 Siculum nectaroscordum (honey garlic)? Lovely!

    43 Weigelia variegata, don't prune until after flowering (June)

     44 Leycesteria formosa. you can cut out some old canes to the ground if needed, or just cut back to shoots .

    45 Spirea

    46a Lonicera nitida, trim as needed.

    46b Hydrangea

    (photos are marked 46a and 46b)

     

    49 looks like ground elder- oh dear....

     

    51 Viola

    Hi, Nutcracker. Thank you for your help. Yes, it's quite a list. I hope it's not an inconvenience for anyone. It shows how little I know about gardening - but I'm willing to learn and do my best to keep this garden in good order. And maybe add some plants here and there (mostly in containers, considering the fact that the garden is quite small and already packed with plants.) Thank you for drawing my attention to the fact that the plants in picture 48 are labelled wrongly.

    There are quite a lot of baby foxgloves and some of them have grown on the gravel somehow. Can I transplant them now? 

  • nutcutletnutcutlet Posts: 27,445

    The one without a number, between the weigela and the leycesteria, looks like elder

    I don't think the rose is a wild one

    The lilies? don't look like lilies to me but I don't grow them so maybe. 

    How are we getting on, anything missing?

    The one without number is just the same plant as the one under (Leycesteria), I just wanted to put a detail of the new growth as well. I might be wrong, so I will examine again tomorrow.

    I assumed the rose was wild because it has very small buds and the bush is different than a garden rose. But I don't know anything about roses...

    We still don't know about nos. 52, 50, 42, 40, 36 and 30.

    one looking closely at the one with no number I think you may have a mixture there. Elder stinks, scratch and sniff the part with the thick brown stems. The green stems are leycesteria.

    50 might be a euonymus

    the two seedlings 40  look like some sort of poppy and maybe love in a mist
