This is part of my front garden at home, can anyone name the furry plant in the forefront on the right? Have got it growing in a couple of places and at first it looks lovely but does become quite leggy and decrepit with time. Like me!! ?
I'm very new to gardening and had some waste space behind my house with an ugly coal bunker and oil tank than was an absolute weed fest. I planted a wild flower and grass mix in May (we had snow in the last week of April so it was late) and I'm delighted with the result.

Looking at Norwin's photos, our what I call Esther Reads (white Daisies) are now giving us a lovely show in various places in the garden.

Sorry, can't upload the photo from my mobile... ?
Norwin.
No picture.
I am having trouble pictures sending from the computer.
At last! Uploaded! Hope you can see the plant I mean.
I think it is Stackys, we have it and call it lambs tail.
Cornelly you are right! Just found it on Wikipedia! Thank you very much!

Stachys is great for bees Norwin, so it's a good addition to a garden if the conditions are right
Your garden looks lovely. The shadow of the tree on the path is really eye catching.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
