  • Paul can you tell me what  the pale pink flowers are please?

    In a world where you can be anything, always be kind.
  • I like the hydrangea. Never seen leaves like that on them.
    Cyclamens are pretty miraculous. Just finally shredded a 10 ft high pile of branches and underneath it all was a flowering cyclamen, happy as Larry.

    Always nice to get a little surprise Paul! image

    The hydrangea is quercifolia - the leaves are oak leaf shaped, hence the name. The foliage has lovely autumn colour. 

    They're Schizostylis,(kaffir lily) Myosotis image

    A lovely mix of cottage garden flowers Sharon.

  • Lovely Sharon.

    Yes, Schizostylis Myosotis. Specifically Cocchinea. The red are a variety of Schistostylis too.

    We had trouble with them too Sharon but finally they gave in and grew ok.
