    Found in my new garden

    I'm certain it's deciduous. It's getting too big for its pot, so needs putting in the ground, or a larger pot. I don't have a spare pot (of the right size) - but I do have some space.

    What are we doing in the garden 2024

    Our cat is buried in the middle of the lawn about 2 ft down. I always have a few words with her when I mow the lawn. We will put a large bird bath on top. RIP pussy.

    @pete your Fouquieria splendens (ocotillo?) does look very spikey! It's hardy down to -15C. There are some seeds for sale on eBay. I may give them a go.

    Any ideas as to this Iris?

    From my experience, Flag iris will grow in any soil which is poor draining so has a good moisture content
