    That looks like a hypericum.

    It’s looking fab !  I’d be tempted to add a Choisya Sundance, an evergreen shrub with bright yellow-y leaves and small white flowers in late spring.  It might need a sheltered spot in your neck of the woods.

    Flower looks like one of the Hypericums

    Thank you.  Yes that would be a lovely addition. The yard is quite sheltered (from winds) and rarely frosts over when the streets do.  I shall keep an eye out for it when I dare to venture out to the garden centre :)

    Wow, looks great! I never would have guessed that any of the flats around here had such amazing collections in their yards!

    Thank you!  Yeah I'd love to have a peep over all of the walls to see if anyone else has a collection.
